Apparently, with the revolver fully loaded, cocking the hammer and pulling the front trigger allowed the hammer to fall firing the front loading of each chamber.
once exhausted on the front loading, the trigger was pulled further rearward, engaging the second trigger, allowing the hammer to hit the cap on the second loading of the chamber.
