Hello Dannyjunkfish,
Have you already seen this web page; Mosin Nagant Rifle Accessories ?
It is very difficult to date the oil bottles exactly. According to the web page the square dual compartment oil bottle should be an early version, so it could be a prewar variant. The round dual compartment oil bottle should be a late version. This round dual compartment version is also depicted in the 1941 manual of the Mosin Nagant rifle. Probably it is a wartime variant. The round single compartment oil bottle with the Izhevsk marking looks postwar to me.

Thanks! I did see that page but it did not pinpoint any type of dating. Except pre war vs post war. Thanks again.

That's great thanks very much for the picture! All the oil cans I have are the two round ones except the other two pictured here.

On one of your pictures I see a black synthetic leather holdall (bag). This small bag is also depicted in the reference book "The Soviet soldier of World war Two". See;RZM.com- Your online source for WWII books & more! .
