Definitely Trojan wood.
The lack of a rib extension is appropriate for a Trojan 12 gauge of that approximate year. Parker Bros. discontinued the Trojan rib extension roughly around 1920 and that gun was made a few years later.
I once owned Trojan 202066 which may be the last known Trojan 16 with the rib extension.
