Looks the same , some better pictures. Also some other letters as well, not sure what they mean.
Per the serial number I think this is a Remington made gun? |

Too bad somebody thought it would be "smart" to tap those plugs deeper into the buttstock.
Yes, those are for the addition or reduction of weight to balance the gun. The checkering pattern of the checkered butt is one of the two popular designs in use by Remington on the checkered butt Parkers they were making. .

I would have the fore-end repaired if it were mine and find a replacement bead. The checkered butt pattern is correct.

BF is the Remington code for January, 1937 the date the gun was made.
LG3 is a date code for a service February 1938 but the reason it was returned for service is unknown. .

It has a single trigger not sure if that was standard or repair I tried some snap caps in it to make sure the firing pins, ejectors where working and the safety did not go back on. Would they have sent in back to make the non auto? The safety seems to have 3 settings is that common? |

Yes it is standard for a skeet gun to have a non-auto safety.
