A lot of them, original ones, have ladder sights.

As time goes on through World War I, they do some simplifications to them.

But the Arshin is an entirely Russian military unit of measure, which nobody else in the world used.

Right?

Anyway, they tape the sights and rear meters.

more more preventive uh more protective sight hoods the round receivers are now so they kept all the hexagons that we arsenaled but new rifles get round receivers because they're easier cheaper to machine um they wanted to at some point update how the slings are attached and go to actual like the rest of the world's using these wonderful inventions called swing slivels swing swivel sling swivels

Say that five times fast.

Like swings?

Yeah, swings.

Sally fell swings down by the swing shore.

Exactly.

Instead of, you know, slotting through the wood.

They didn't get around to updating that at all.

but essentially updated it to have, and this is where a lot of your shit sticks come in.

Your garbage rods is post 1930 because the rifles manufactured after that point are cheaper, easy to manufacture.

Then you creep on to world war two is approaching 1939 and onward.

You get some of those mid war, especially Mosin's.

So those things get pretty, get caught almost fuck.

Those get loosey goosey.

And then you get real bad garbage rods, which is what my M44 was post-World War II, where they go in and re-arsenal a bunch of the rifles again and counterbore a bunch of them.
