A pistol slide chambers a round, cocks the hammer, and ejects spent casings.

Ironwood's pisotl is a hybrid with components of both a revolver and a semi automatic. in addition, it has two triggers, likkely one for each function.

I would like to direct your attention to the CZ75, a pistol with what is known as an internal slide

Notice that the slide is less pronounced than on most pistols.

If you take al ook at the concept art of Ironwood's pistol, the top most portion (above the cylinder) has a clearly visible line running back from it

Also visible on the front of the weapon (above the barrel, in the given configuration)

is a GUIDE ROD, a component present in the slide of a semi automatic pistol, but NOT on a revolver.
