Were any PEM rifles built on Hex receivers or were they all built on high wall round receivers ?

Actually first trial run of PEM's in 1936 (approximately 50 mounts produced by Voskov factory in Sestroretsk) were hex receiver rifles. Reason - PEM design was copied from GECO D3 mout, and D3 was supposed to be used on the hex receivers. Preserial PEM mount (there is an image in my book) had very similar design. However, in 1936-1938 mount was redesigned, and serial production was started only in mid 1938, and of course, only using round receivers
