I don't know for sure, but with the original serial number filed off and an incorrect one stamped on the frame, this gun may very well be illegal to own. This is not a good situation.

I checked the sales ticket and the frame stamp was used as the ser # but based on history of these models, as told here, it looks like a boo-boo. I need to follow up tomorrow from the seller on this. Thanks.
What would be the advantage of trimming the butt, assuming the point was not to de-identify this?
