68.39.186.119I would say not all before or after.
If you are not sure, remove the one wood screw and loosen the trigger guard and your guns serial number should be there. Some people will say that on a replaced stock the stock maker or someone could stamp the serial number, well prove it otherwise. - Re: Bottom Tang Screws (Pre 1920)

12.218.71.2Here is the wood under the trigger guard. It looks like the serial number from the guard is mashed in the wood. 
I could not get a good focus on the back of the guard. The SN is 214098. It looks like they ran out of room and had to put the 8 above the 0 and 9.
