    Wecome!

    IMO the shortest way if starting from scratch is download the SPWAW freeware and look at the OOB in the game, while the accuracy is sometimes debatable they are pretty good and very comprehensive as they cover all nations. May seem strange to use a wargame as reference but those guys made a huge effort at collecting info and while not always 100% accurate (especially for late war) it's a good start.

    There are a number of threads on this site like:

    http://www.ww2f.com/weapons-wwii/33216-volkssturm-small-arms.html

    http://www.ww2f.com/weapons-wwii/32445-double-brens.html

    but you need to search a bit, squad level OOBs are pretty popular, platoon and company level a bit less.
