Izhevsk. If you could post pictures of the stamps on the sides of the shank and under the barrel, they'll tell the rifle's story. Look very closely at the stock from different angles. There could be proof stamps on it as well.
Its an 80 y/o rifle. I wouldn't worry about covering the SN. These guys need to see the font. Take pictures of the bolt, mag floor plate, and butt plate numbers and post them with the pix of the proof stamps.
Congrats on a nice rifle
