115grfmj,
To get back to your original question, yes we all experience nicks and cuts with the P64 and many other concealed carry pistole's. Hand guns are tools and like all tools they some times bite you. The important thing to remember is that this tool may some day save yours or a member of your family's life. I am currently sporting two small cuts and a bruise on the web of my right hand between my thumb and forefinger. Given its deficiency's in that respect, I am so enamored of this pistol and its superior carry quality, I am willing to deal with the scrapes and bruises to acquire and maintain proficiency with it.......... G.R.

P.S.,
A shooting glove couldn't hurt during practice. Change the springs and may be consider a melt of the lower rear end of the slide. If you have very large hands you may want to consider a different carry weapon. ............. G.R.

Hi the small hogue sleeve fits me pretty well and after rounding the sharp edges of the frame does not bite me no matter what I am shooting..

Greetings

We should all contact the makers of Pearce grips and make them aware that there's a lot of P-64 owners out there. I love the Pearce grip on my Makarov and I would buy one for my 64 in a heartbeat if it was available.

"you can also us a bicycle inter tube cut and fit it

NORM"

I took a piece of old bicycle inner tube from my wife's bike (I put two new tubes in it two years ago and she hasn't rode it since) The first one I cut straight, about 2", and put it on and thought I could do better. So, for the second one I cut it on a taper or bevel, about 2" on one side and about 2 1/2" on the other side. I put the 2" side under the trigger and the longer side towards the back, slight difference, but I like it better.
The tube I used was from a 10 speed with the small racing style tires. I was surprised how thin it was and by the time I stretched it over the grips, it was even thinner. Right now the tube has a lot of talc still on it so it is slick. Since everything is black it looks fine and feels good too. I am going to leave them on for a while to see how I like them.
I am going to look for a thicker rubber and a slightly larger tire tube to see if it works better. I read on a forum somewhere a guy rolled up little pieces of inner tube, stuck them up under the tube sleeve and it made little finger notches. It looked good but as tight as mine are I don't think it is possible.

Don't worry. In a month or two a large callous will form on the web of your hand. It will kinda look like the bottom of your foot.

Won't hurt anymore.

How long for the callous to form on my trigger finger where the trigger guard digs in?
