You are more detail oriented than I, as I didn't even catch that. So this is a "modified," not stock P228.
The only thing I can think of is at some point in time, the original grip was swapped with a Hogue and then put back on.
Or, according to this

Some details that need attention are the soft metal used in the grip screws, and the tendency for these screws to come loose if not extremely well-tightened. Fixes to these shortcomings are: use an exact-fit screwdriver when loosening or tightening the screws, replace the grip screws with hexhead grip bolts or use a Hogue or Pachmayer slip-on grip to secure the grip panels.

That is just a WAG on my part tho.

He included his phone number in the auction, so yea, I rang him up to ask questions, chatted a bit, and bought it now.
