Books on 19th century firearms accessories?

[Chasseur d'ours]

This is sort of a shot in the dark, but are there any decent books/guides to collecting British (and/or European) firearms accessories? Especially from the 19th Century? Essentially I'm interesting in learning more about all the accouterments that used to come in the case with these fine rifles.

I have a nice little book, "English Sporting Guns and Accessories", by MacDonald Hastings, which I can recommend. Not a comprehensive treatise, but well done with a lot of good photos. It is available from Amazon for only a few dollars.
