As to numerous revolvers carried by any single cavalryman, it depends. Most reenactors research their unit down to the firearm, uniform, actions. As far as I know, multiple revolvers were carried, but only by those who favored close range combat. A lot of cavalry action later in the war saw the carbine being used a lot.
