I have a Browning T-2 (checkered, the T-1's were not checkered), that has a salt-wood stock. It does not look like your stock; mine is very dark with an open grain that has been filled with a filler that is almost black. The finish looks like shinny plastic. This original stock did not come with sling swivels attached (yours looks like it has a front swivel). It also came with an aperture receiver sight, a plastic single shot adapter, a plastic magazine cover for use when using it as a single shot. It would be my guess that your stock is a replacement or for, or was not salt-wood to begin with.
My T-2, despite being salt-wood, is very accurate (slightly under an inch at 100 yards) with Remington target ammo (that comes in a green and blue box).
