I just asked this question the other day. You could have loaded the 6th chamber on the clock and shot the target.

You could have the 6th chamber on either revolver.

It is also acceptable for a shooter to replace defective (bad primer?) rounds in a cartridge revolver in order to successfully complete a stage. Even if a revolver has a “squib” (effectively putting that firearm out of commission), the shooter MAY reload the functioning revolver to finish the shooting string after making the malfunctioning firearm safe.
