It looks right to me. Not the right pattern but it could have certainly been shipped that way. The mullered borders are the first to go. You could take the forend iron off and look for the serial number on the wood and remove the trigger guard and do the same to make sure the wood wasn't replaced with lower grade Parker wood. I think there is a good chance that the wood is original to the gun despite the lower grade checkering pattern.

I have a 1 frame 12 gauge G grade with V/P checkering pattern on the wrist. I looked under the trigger guard when I brought it home years ago and the serial number matched the gun. There was also an 0 separate from the sn to indicate grade. I got a letter but it made no mention of stock replacement or checkering. I'll have to dig it out of the safe and check the forend pattern.

Default Wrong Checkering Pattern ?

Thank you all for your comments and observations ! While I checked the serial number on the butt stock ( matched the action,barrels and forend iron) I didnt check the forend wood serial number. I will check it this evening
