Unless it has been rebarreled, it should be a P17 made by Winchester in .30-06 Springfield.

If memory serves correctly, the caliber is stamped on the barrel. A trip to a qualified gunsmith should reveal the caliber if you are in doubt.

P14's are .303brit, US M1917 is 30'06, in their original chamberings. Many of these were sporterized and rebarrel to different cartridges. If the barrel is original, it should have a date and manufacturer marks on top, just before the front site. If it's been sporterised, might want to have a gunsmith take a quick look at it.
If it's complete, it should look like this:

Receiver markings:

Barrel date:

FYI - judging by the serial number you provided your receiver was manufactured in February 1918
