Hi TJH,
If the serial number of your rifle is 46xxx it was indeed manufactured in 1922, about the time Remington introduced their date code system. It appears yours was not date coded, however, it has 2 repair codes.
PPP3 - June, 1945
The 2nd stamp is harder to interpret because it appears double stamped, or stamped lightly and a harder stamp applied. So the date is probably U or UU. 1927 or 1949. Seeing this with repair code stamps is not uncommon, I've seen the "3"s upside down, backward, etc.
You have a dandy Krieger conversion there! The gun is in gorgeous condition.
