I've always been surprised that Colt's New Frontier, which is supposed to be their premium SA revolver, often has such plain and dull finished wood grips. A few examples from GB auctions..
Colt sure did make some plain looking wood grips for their SAA's and NF's. I have quite a few in a drawer that I took off of those guns and replaced them with ivory.
Some of the worst Colt factory grips I have ever seen were on Nickeled 2nd gen SAA's in Stagecoach boxes. They were made of the most utilitarian (to borrow chaosrob's great description) walnut I have ever seen.
