I may venture to guess that the stock itself may be original. Just improperly refinished, beining that the drop points were removed and the checkering pattern recut incorrectly. Everything else about it looks right.
Some guns that were ordered without a safety had the slots filled and engraved over. And some were made that way before the slots were cut in the tangs. Yours looks to be the later.
