I haven't looked to see if there any Thai grips on eBay made for the NS. Anyway, some of the Thai grios look very good and the price is right - usually under $40 including shipping. I just ordered two pair this morning for two of my S&Ws after reading some glowing comments on the S&W forum. Occasionally, the original black hard rubber grips with the COLT lozenge on the top show up on eBay at reasonable prices - maybe $30 or so. I have a NS with a pair of those grips, and they really give it that "Period" look.
