This is what a MK-I, T514 tapered bolt looks like. Someone else will have to post a picture of a regular bolt as I don't have a picture of one. As you can see it tapers from the rear of the "ears" to the front of the "ears"

Tnx street. I have a regular and suspected this is how the ear tapered. But needed verification. Have not been much into the pistols. Thanks again for the pic.

The tapered bolt stop is pretty easy to visualize. Most bolt stops stick up out of the top rear of the receiver behind the rear sight as a fully rounded stub, sometimes flat on top. Early round bolt stops were flat on top and had a 45-degree angle going downward toward the receiver, but still...the round bolt stop is symetrical.
the tapered bolt stop is high at the rear and dips below the receiver at its most forward part. The design is presumed to have come from early prototype Mark I production when the rear sight overhung the bolt stop on a couple of those prototypes and the bolt stop needed to be tapered in order to clear the rear overhang of that Micro rear sight. The tapered bolt stop is seen on most autos between about 13-30000 and 13-55000 which includes some early Liberty marked guns.
