You have a Model 14-1/2. The rifle has a 22-1/2 inch barrel. The carbine has a 18-1/2 inch barrel. The rifle came in two magazine lengths. The full length comes almost to the end of the barrel. The other is call a half magazine but is more like twothirds. If there isn't any checkering, it is an "A" grade. These guns were made from 1913 untill early in the thirties. These rifles are becomig hard to find. Take good care of it.

I forgot to tell you the the factory listing of serialnumbers indicates your receiver was made in 1914.
