Would there have been something on a gun belt to carry a flask, balls, etc. or would someone have carried a possibles bag to feed this pistol,

The answer to that would have a lot to do with who's carrying the pistol and what other weapons  they have.

If that person is carrying say cap and ball rifle with the pistol, of course he would have shooting gear in a shooting bag.

A cowboy type would most likely carry his pistol in a holster with MAYBE a spare cylinder on his belt, and then keep all the powder, balls and everything else in his saddle bag.

Keep in mind that the real cowboys didn't do a lot of shooting, and during the course of roping cattle etc etc it would just get in the way, so many of them during their normal workday kept their gun and holster in the saddle bag

Hope this helps
