The semi-good news is that might be able to be salvaged and made right again. Hard to tell for sure by the photos, but if the carving does not get too close to the meal parts, the wood could be taken down some and original style checkering recut.
The grip cap is not correct either, but that could most likely be replaced with the right one too.

By the look of the comb and how fat the grip looks, I would wager that the buttstock might be a replacement. Again, just a guess based on what I see.
