Guns at this link have Picatinny rails on top and sides, which are used to mount optics and accessories (lights, etc). This is the hot ticket in tactical small arms these days. I can't think of any significant changes or improvements in firearms design in the future, except perhaps caseless ammunition or biometric operator authorization. Aside from optics and materials, there haven't really been any significant improvements in the last 60-70 years. So it has been difficult for me to imagine a significantly "futuristic" design for a gun. That was one aspect of Blade Runner I never really got. How do you improve on the revolver? All I can recommend is a red dot scope. You can find these all over the Internet. For your project, remember that the slide moves separately from the barrel, and that you need a case ejection port on one side (traditionally the right side). That's pretty good modelling for Bryce.
