any chance you read Germanicon? Or Finnish?

Best book is probably Drei Linine Gewehr by Karl-Heinz Wrobel. 2 Volume set. Hard to find though and expensive (and written in German).

Sadly, the best references on many arms are not in English

Looks like you already have the two best English references, though they are both out of date.
