I have seen more than one Sterlingworth field grade and NID field grades that have checkered cheeks.

Some said it was after market. Another said he thought it was an extra that could be ordered when the gun was made. And some said it was done to hide wood checks.

I have an NID with checkered cheeks and there are no hidden wood checks.
