Rick, So I came across a 1903 Stock here are some pictures of it. How can you tell who its made by or if it for my year receiver? This stock is in good condition and I was thinking about getting it until I could save up the money for a 1903 Remington stock that I another member of the forum has and is willing to sell me.
This stock as several makings: near the cut-off area there is a EJA or FJA oe maybe a symbol and JA; on the bottom near the front trigger guard screw hole it look like a "P" in a circle; on the right side near butt are two set of four number.

Keep in mind that Frank J. Atwood (FJA) was not an inspector but the commander of the Rochester Ordnance District (which contained Remington).
Rick Thanks again. Since this last post I was able to locate and buy an early Remington Stock with pins that doesn't have the cuts for the 03A3 handguard ring. Now just need to find the High Hump handguard and the rifle is complete. Thank you!
I don't think your Remington would take a high hump hand guard.
Low hump, straight windage knob cut.
Usabaker is correct - Remington M1903s used a modified "high hump" handguard until the end of production.
