Santa brought me a Classic P64 with an extra mag for Christmas. Installed Wolff Springs and bought a Remora PPK holster and was all set to begin using it for CCW.
Noticed that Classic was thoughtful enough to send my extra mag with the plastic finger extension broken off. After a few minutes working on it with my dremel I have a more comfortable and concealable mag extension.

Re: P64 Mag Modification
I have thought of grinding the extension off myself. It would print less. But can't do it!

Re: P64 Mag Modification
Very nice! I made myself a couple flat mag bottoms out of sheet metal that I use when pocket carrying. I haven't managed to get them to the range yet. Once I try them out at the range I'll post a thread with photos.

Thanks to Classic's customer service, I had nothing to lose. After carrying it a few days now I really like the modified mag.chestertnted wrote:I have thought of grinding the extension off myself. It would print less. But can't do it!
Don't know if it was the stiffer recoil spring or the fact I was used to stiff 38 special loads in my J frame, but the terrible recoil I heard about with the P64 just has not been a problem. I find it quite comfortable to shoot compared to my J frame Taurus.
