question for gun enthusiasts

hi, working on a model at the moment of the pistol Malcolm Reynolds uses in firefly.

iv found this site for reference and its pretty good but the thing i cant work out is where is the ejection port for the spent cartridge?

here's the site

I haven't seen the show, so I don't know much about this weapon. But the design seems to be based off an old top break revolver. Which would have no ejection port.

Basically, it doesn't have an ejection port because it's a revolver, but they put shit over the revolver and gave it a fake magazine.

Maybe it fires caseless ammo and doesn't need an ejection port

Maybe some sort of luger-esque top ejection?
