He really means 6 revolvers. I only shot Zoot once-a few years ago at Pitspitr's farm. So I'm no expert, but IIRC, you don't have to reload, you can just stage revolvers(and rifles) all over the place. I shot with a pair of 32-20s, one a S&W similar to yours, and a Marlin 1889, and my trusty Lebel rifle and a Peacemaker clone.
