No “B” grade marking on my 31, however there is no “T” or “TC” marking either, and the checkering And grip cap matches the pIctures in the catalog for B grade.
Pictures in what catalog? In my collection of Remington Arms Co., Inc. catalogs of the Model 31 era, from 1932 to 1949, the closest I come to a picture of a Model 31B "Special" Grade is this in the 1949 catalog --

Model 31B Special Grade 1949 catalog.jpeg

which shows no grip cap and the same whimpy little triangle of checkering as used on the Model 31 Skeet Gun.

From your two pictures I'd have pegged your gun as a Model 31S "Trap Special" or Model 31H "Hunters Special". No matter, still a wonderful piece of wood.
