As mentioned, Rango's pistol looks intentionally like the Colt Peacemaker; whose action is advanced (cylinder rotated) by pulling back the hammer.
Colt Peacemaker cylinders are rotated by cocking the hammer; loading cartridges and removing fired brass are by opening a loading gate on the right side.
A Peacemaker's cylinder is never swung out to one side, as Rattlesnake Jake opened the cylinder to dump five shells out; leaving one shell in the cylinder.
Colt Peacemakers' simple mechanisms allow that classic Peacemaker single action look. Double-action revolvers, i.e. where pulling the trigger cocks the hammer and advances the cylinder, prevents double-action revolvers from ever having clean Peacemaker lines.
It appears the pistol as used is some amalgam of 20th-century double-action revolvers, stuffed into Peacemaker looks; an anachronism.
