The engraving has probably worn off. My cousin has a VH pistol grip that he rabbit hunted with for his entire life and all of the border and the serial number are gone where he held it the entire day long. Easily fixed by an engraver.

You may try switching positions on the screws and time them correctly (straight with the tang) and find they were put in the wrong place. A very nice gun to be enjoyed.
