I was sorting through my Mosin Nagants and noticed that there is a variation between bolt faces between the rifles made at the Izhevsk arsenal. I've found little information on the design change on the web, although I'm still reading through the material.

I just found it curious, has anyone done any research on this difference?

I guess I should stop buying Mosin Nagant LOL, I would not have really noticed it otherwise.
