Interesting that someone would cut gas vents in the breech face... I wonder why?
Are there Remington repair codes on the barrel flats? Remington made stocks are typically thicker in the wrist and that looks to be a very well made stock - possibly Remington, but the 'nose of the comb' doesn't look like Remington or DelGrego.
Looks like a 140XXX serial number. Yes, it does have the post-1917 safety button.
