Definitely not original to it.

Some Soviet M38s utilized M44 stocks, particularly the '43-45 dated examples, for which a M44 stock would be correct due to the over-lap in production of both weapons.

Stocking a M44 in M38 wood is a new one on me...It's usually the other way around because of the in letting that is desirable to accommodate the folding bayonet.
