Is it just my eyes or did they special order that gun with coarse checkering?
I believe what you are seeing is a moir'e pattern in the reduced image. When the image is scaled up to its full size the checkering looks much finer, although a bit irregular.
The checkering on the grip looks more like a "C" grade pattern, but this is an early gun so maybe the "B" flourish was not established yet.
