if hooked, for a start maybe you should read an article on Model 1870 Gasser, in The American Rifleman, Feb. 1985, authored by Jani Hartman (by the way, that's me). Since then I've uncovered a lot of new data from reliable sources, including Montenegrin State Archives, so if you need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Gasser made some percussion revolvers in the early 1860s so it's not impossible that any were used in the Confederate trenches, more so due to Caleb Huse of Confederate fame buying thousands of firearms in Vienna in the same period.
With kind regards,
Jani
