There is a 1903a3 for sale. It has the a3 sight but the stock doesn't have the pistol grip-- it is a 1903 stock.
 
Any pistol grip (C stock) or scant grip stock on an 03A3 would be a replacement. All were made with a straight grip like the pic.
It appears it is a Remington but unless you post pics of ALL markings on the wood and metal there is no telling originality.
From what I see it looks pretty good.
Asking price?
 
Good price for a shooter. Depends on bore.
Bonus points for originality.
Remington stamped R on every metal part.

almost all 1903A3s shipped with a straight stock no grasping grooves. a few were replaced with the scant stocks but original stock is the straight NGG. only the 1903A4 snipers (which were still marked 1903A3) came with the pistol grips.
 
I cant tell from the photo but does it have the snap on front hooded sight?
Mine does. I found someone that had a bunch of them in new condition. My only problem is it wont stay straight on the gun when its fired.
 
Front Sight Guard

Shooters usually remove that snap on sight guard at the firing line.
The USMC did have a much larger looped guard but I'm not sure the riflemen left them on while firing.
I know I always removed mine at the firing line.
