Checkered cheeks on grades below BH would be special order.

The givaways of this one not being factory is the quality of the work. It is coarser than the grip checkering and the diamonds are not even laid out straight.

There were some factory D grades that had Checkered cheeks that letter, but this one is not one of them.!

I have a DHE 20 that letters with checkered cheeks and two 30 inch guns and a 32. The long barrels are very nice on a clays course or open country bird hunting but not for grouse/woodcock hunting.
