First Thoughts before install
Liked the deep rich color of the grips without any cloudy or milky spots from the sealant. The Navy medallion is nice touch and large for the grip. The set of grips I received the medallion sticks up way too much on the edges and would mess up my touch while gripping my firearm. The medallion should be recessed further into the grip so that it is flush with the checkering of the grip on the edges. If that is possible because of the size of the medallion.  However, again because of the size it should also have a slight curve. The original Colt gold medallions have a screw/nut to retain them in the grip. These do not. My grip set had clear cement smeared all around the medallion and into the checkering. Was able to clean up with old toothbrush and so not to sure about durability. I spent the 10.99 for 2day shipping however must return for refund or exchange : if, recessing the medallion to remain flush on the outer edges is possible. Mine sticks up above the wood. I might give this another try. Will update-<br />Well, I was told to return as they could not recess the Navy medallion any deeper into the grip to make it flush.<br />However, The medallion popped right off of the grip and with a boring bit you can fix their mistake and lack of support for shoddy workmanship. These would NEVER hold up with everyday use sticking up like they were. So I revise my review to 1 star...
