Get "Smallarms of the World" by Edward Ezell.  It's available from Publisher's
Clearing House or Barnes and Noble for a reasonable price these days.

For a comprehensive LISTING, get "Smallarms Today" by Ezell.  It's organized
by country.  The NATO type weapons even include stock numbers!

Either "Jane's Infantry Weapons" or "Jane's Guided Missiles(?)".  I forget
which.

"Cartridges of the World" by Barnes.  A new edition is out.  It also gives
historical and reloading information.
