155846 would probably have shipped around 1910 and it would be a third change Model of 1902, as it has the rounded butt. Grips are from the 1930s, originally it probably had black hard rubber grips. If the Savage is shootable, you did OK. It will make a good project gun. I don't believe I have ever seen a plated Savage, so I'd guess yours has aftermarket plating. You can find replica grips for it.
