NC Ordnance sells nice products. The only issue I've had is sometimes the screw is too long and you have to trim it down.

I bought a set of faux stag for a Ruger Wrangler ...
Pleased with how they loked , Price was right , fit was great ...
Not a complaint but the screw was a little long and I trimmed it ...
I would much rather a long screw to a short screw .
I'm Happy-Happy with my NC Grips .

I can't speak to their wood grips, but their plastic repros of S&W hard rubber are poor quality.

They look nice, but IMHO they are not worth $200 + shipping + tax. If you decide to sell them later on because you don't like how they feel on your hand, you'll be very lucky to get half of your money back. If it was me, and I had a nice revolver that I wanted to dress up, I would keep saving my money and buy some used KB's or some good brand/good quality grips FS on the Forum Classifieds. You can always get your money back on those.
A few years ago I bought a .38 Safety Hammerless with a 5" barrel that was in nice shape, but it came with cracked H&R black rubber grips (it was a perfect fit, BTW). I sold them for $15 and replaced them temporarily with a new set of $30 NCO black plastic repros (see picture).
You are not going to fool any half-way knowledgeable S&W collector with them, but the truth of the matter is that again, IMHO, they looked decent and they did fit perfectly without any adjustments. The were a good "spot filler" until I got a nice set of grips. I still have them, and I'll sell them for $25 at our next gun show, and I'll be happy with that.
Nowadays, the price of the NCO black plastic grips has sky-rocketed and they are going for $50 plus shipping & FL tax. So, nowadays, I would NOT buy them at that price.
Attached is a poor picture of the Safety Hammerless with the repro NCO grips.
