A better explosive for the Bolsheviks might be the model 1914 grenade, as the F1 was invented 10 years after the Russian Civil War ended. Also I would suggest that you change the close range to the Shillelagh for the IRA, and the Shashka sabre for the Bolsheviks. And the Bolsheviks fought a much more Riot-esc type of warfare. And most members of the IRA had little to no combat experience, although some had fought in WWI or the Easter Rising, the Bolsheviks had more than the IRA, as they would have most likley fough either the Austrians, or the Germans.
