The grip cap is of a design that was used in the "early days". Before the grip checkering is changed by our recommendation, you should send pictures of the forend and butt treatment. Personally, I think the grip checkering is very characteristic of folk art and should not be "hidden" or "covered up". On a V Grade, it should be left in place as an example of what it is, great folk art.
