In Buck's time, there're already revolvers like the Colt .45 revolver, which uses bullets. A major jump in modern firearms.

I'm thinking somwhere around 1861~1865, during the American Civil War, because there're Confederate Soldiers here. But the Longshot Repeater 1887 was originally invented in 1886, far from the Civil War. So which year was it?

This brings me to a timeline problem, there're currently Confederate Soldiers in Six Guns, but the Longshot Repeater 1887 has already been invented, meaning the year now would be 1886 onwards, so what are Confederate Soldiers still doing here after 21 years from the Civil War?
