So those that have or had them tell me what you like about Nill grips. I am considering them for my S&W 16-4, are they worth it?
Pics are always appreciated by the way

They fit my hands extremely well. They also fit the gun with a snap on fit. Well shaped and checkered exactly where needed.  |

I can tell you what I DON'T like about them! lol $$$$$ I honestly don't remember if I bought my first set new or not. I put them on my USPSA gun, then went to a match without ever firing it. Shot a classifier stage where you picked the gun up off a table, shot my highest score ever at the time. So I thought "Well I guess I'm keeping them!" Some time later I bought the second set used online for another "race gun" I was going to assemble, but never did. Ended up putting all the pre-purchase parts on a 657 instead. They're big, "round" feeling, hand filling. I like them. Always said I'd buy more used ones, not sure about new ones. Turns out it never mattered, didn't buy anything to put them on. "Expensive German plywood"    |

They’re great on a heavy recoiling Redhawk

Don't remember how I ended up with these, but the upper 8 3/8" 57 has a set of the Nill Retro Cokes. The lower gun a standard set of S&W Cokes... The Nills feel great and are beautifully finished... Bob  |

"are they worth it?"
always a subjective sort of thing for any grip(s), isn't it?
do they fit your hand/help you control the firearm - if yes, you are a "go" at this station..
otherwise...

This pair is a RB to SB N-frame conversion pair that Nill used to call "Retro Target" or "Coke" style. Not a direct S&W Coke Bottle copy, but very attractive. If I recall, they were $225.00 about 20 years ago. Not cheap, and took forever to deliver. The checkering and fit with Nill is near custom grade, but you pay for it. Comfortable stocks.

I saved those grips in case I ever found a 5" Model 625, but have never run across one at a price I thought was good.
