Are the trigger/sear assemblies of the M2 different from the 1903?
Is the M2 bolt stop different from the 1903?
Thanks in advance for your help.***

I believe the trigger and sear assemblies on the Model 1922M2 are the same as on a Model 1903 rifle. The bolt stop is structurally the same as on a Model 1903 rifle but has no OFF or ON stamped on it.

The cut off and the bolt stop on the M1903 and the M1922 series are nor really interchangeable. The M1903 cut off has an extra cut that allows the bolt to come back far enough for the bolt to pick up a cartridge from the magazine. The bolt stop on the M1922 series does not have this cut. I would suppose that a M1903 cut off would work satisfactorily in a M1922 series rifle, but the bolt would have an approximately ½ inch extra rearward travel. A M1922 series bolt stop could be installed on a M1903, but the lack of a cut would not allow the magazine e to be put in the ON condition. The bolt could never go back far enough to pick up a round from the magazine. Either position would put the rife in the OFF position.
Take a M1903 and a M1922 and put the cut off in the bolt removal position. The difference will be obvious.
The trigger assembly is completely interchangeable.
Hope this helps.
