Yes cartridges were not invented at the period of time the M1849 was made. The real M1849 was a ball and cap weapon so the user had to load the gunpowder and the bullet into each individual hole in the cylinder then place a percussion cap on the back end of the cylinder in order to reload the weapon which takes a considerable amount of time to do.

But the (albiet fictional) version shown in combat arms does use cartridges. It is evident in its reload animation where the character "breaks open" the revolver and uses '''a speed loader to place cartridges into the cylinder. The reload takes less than 3 seconds to complete in game.'''

In other words, the Model 1849 in game is completely fictional and are not accurate to its real life counterpart...same could be said for the other civil war revolvers too Bolded key words.

In the game, the M1849 is NOT REAL because of the BOLDED reason. Guess what? Since it doesn't EXIST in the GAME, you MUST be referring to real life, unless you're referring to the 1st, fourth or the infinite dimensions. Therefore, it is IRL, and should NOT BE PUT AS TRIVIA.
