I don't recall ever seeing an order for a D grade or higher where a DHBP was requested. There are a few orders where the order states no butt plate or no heel plate meaning the butt is checkered.

I was talking to a very well respected English gunsmith last week and he said the checkered butt was popular because the stock can be shortened or lengthened much easier than a butt with a pad or a SSBP. Makes sense to me.
