The relevant Osprey.

Huh.  I should have thought of that.  The photo is a bit more clear in my copy.  I'm still thinking "à la Belge".  But it's by no means conclusive.

It's also possible to "work around" the limited viewing pages in Google Books and Amazon, if you know that something is there.  Sometimes.

I thought it could be a Breda form certain angles, but convinced it's a Chatelerault.

I think you hit the nail on the head there. I knew it was French.
