I like this pistol

It's a keeper.
It's sleek and beautiful.
It disappears in my pocket in a DeSantis G2 pocket holster.

Now, I'm looking for some ivory colored grips....Open to suggestions.

I thought I would like to go with some wood, but no, ivory colored.
Maybe plastic or rubber...ivory colored.

I see a vendor on e-Bay selling plastic grips in all different colors for $20.00.
Anyone know if they are worth fooling with?

Before you charge off and purchase just any set of grips, I would look at the grips made by MARSCHAL.

http://www.marschalgrips.com/hires-p64/P64.HTM

I have a set of their grips on one of my P-64's and they are a perfect fit. And I really do mean " PERFECT " :!:

Only problem is you would be waiting for quality and custom made grips . Thus, be prepared to wait about (4) months after placing your order, to receive your set of grips.

MARSCHAL, even engraved my initials on the grips, at no extra cost. But as I said, be prepared to wait. To me, it was worth the wait. :D

Those are a work of art, no doubt.
The wait would be too hard on me though.
I was worried about slide bite before I fired my P-64.
The beavertail wooden grips would have addressed that concern.
However, after firing today, slide bite is not on my list now.

I may try a set of the $20 e-Bay grips.

Thanks for the tip.
I've sent them an e-mail to see if they will do the P64.

I just took a quick look at Tillander Grips website. They do look like a nice grip and the pricing it decent.

If you take a look thru their GALLERY, if I am correct they do show P-64 with grips.

Kindly post what you get for a reply from them. Thanks ......... :)

Nice review. And I would recommend Polish Irons polymer grips. Soften the recoil some and feel great in the hands. Not as pretty as Marschall's but it is a working gun not a show pony. I love mine.
Close enough for Government work will get you dead, ask any Vet.

Yes some are not working but the majority of those who have spoken about them have been more than favorable. Like any product, works for some /most but not everyone.

One thing that I have found in reading reports about this firearm, is those that have had a problem with the P-64 have been able to make them to function fully from a good available parts supply.

Gives owners a somewhat peace of mind feeling. :wink:
