Blondie carries a Colt cartridge revolver which is actually non-historical as it is not actually a 'conversion' of a cap and ball revolver but more in the way of a factory cartridge revolver-a conversion revolver has a 'filler ring' which mounts the loading gate and a turned-off cylinder however these guns have full length cylinders and loading gates which are factory engineered into the frames.
