Ok I promise.

Psssst Mrs Ketch
Going to order the grips as soon as I get the gun since he needs the year it was made. They look cool.
Got my new P83 today. The decocker works like it's supposed to.

Left the other one at the gunsmith's so he can install new slide/sear parts to see if it will finally work.

If you do NOT like the grips, especially after shooting it with the stock grips and then with the Polish Iron grips then I will believe something is seriously wrong with you.

At least something more than what may already be wrong with you given you seem to have a similiar affliction as I.
Let us know what you think of them both before and after range time. And pictures man. We need pictures. Both the P-83's and the P-64.

Thanks Curly. Do these grip in any way affect drawing the gun from the holster? Reason I ask is that I had to remove the Hogue grips I had on the Sig P230SL because I couldn't get my fingers between the grip and the top of the holster to pull the gun out.

OG it will depend on your holster. I have no problems with my Outbags IWB or my Uncle Mikes #1 IMB rigs using the Polish Iron grips. Easy access to a full grip while holstered, see the link I posted a couple of days ago it shows my P64 with the Polish Iron grips in the Outbags holster.

Yeah Ketch, I saw that and was impressed with the grips. Was about to order it when I noticed he needs the year it was made. I have a holster like your OB that fits the P83. The one you have for the P64 is for the PPK?

No it was listed as fitting the P-64. I had entered "P-64 holster" on Amazon and the Outbags IWB came up and it states that it fits the P-64. Course it prbly alos fits the PPK but that is how I found it. Love it too. Bit stiff at first but it softens out nice.

Ok. It's the LOB03S and it also fits the PPK/S.
BTW - I just posted the pics of the P83s on the 9x18 board.

That 1987 is very nice and with 4 mags too! Cool. And where the hell did you come up with Federal Hi Shok 90 grain JHP ammo

?? I did not even know Federal EVER made 9x18 ammo. And by the way, the last 2 pics did not post.

Ketch, the 2 pics with the ammo is the new one - the 1989. The one with the holster is the 1987. The 1987 came with 2 mags and then I bought 2 more. The 1989 came only with one. So now I have 5 mags.
I got the ammo from my LGS/FFL. He had them somewhere and sold them to me for $0.00.

Strange you can't see the pics. I can, either by going to the 9x18 board or thru the link I posted. Sent you a PM.
