Red nine grips

Greetings, Gentlemen,

Didn't want to hijack the other thread, so I started a new one.

George, do these resemble the grips on your 1917 LP08?

As far as I can tell, the grips are original. Is there a strong possibility the "9" was mistakenly carved in by a field armorer during the early days of this pistol? In other words, do you think they are authentic. There is always the possibility it was done much later, though I don't quite understand why. Comments and opinions, please.
