Speaking of refurbishment and mixing and matching...
My Kiv/39 is a "B Barrel" marked 1942, but almost definitely made post war. The VKT pressure proof probably indicates that VKT did the assembly. The Bolt body is Remington marked. The bolt and cocking piece are Tula; with the cocking piece being blued by the Finns. The striker and guide bar are Izhevsk.
The Chinese Type 53's bolt assembly is entirely Izhevsk.
The Kiv/28-30 back to mixing and matching. Izhevsk bolt and cocking piece. Tula body, guide and striker.
The Soviet M-91/30 is from Izhevsk and except for the striker and cocking piece it's all Izhevsk. I don't know who made those parts because none of the online guides mention B marked bolt parts (although there's a mark that's tantalizing close to a circle R...).
