The Unofficial P64 Resource Forum

I did not find any threads using the search but from their website this looks like they may have done the work on the main page picture. does anyone know for sure and has anyone ordered grips from them? looks like a pretty cool way to spruce up the gun. here is the link.

I have a pair on my P64 from Marschal.
I had to grind wood away from mag ejector to be able to access it fast if necessary.

After wearing it for a few days IWB my perspiration basically ruined the shellac finish. I've just stripped of shellac with nail polish remover, very easy took 2 mins., and I will refinish with outdoor satin polyurethane which I hope will be oblivious to my sweat.

Wood is thicker then the original plastic grip, but gives the P64 a classier look.

I ordered two sets today Wattle with red schel-lac and light wattle two piece. Will let you known when I receive them.

His grips are popular with P-64 owners. My P-64s wear them and so do some of my other pistols.

I think I can join the legions of fans of his grips have a few different for different guns.not even counting how good they are the service and commitment is next to done.

amaven and All,

As a retired house painter, mostly interior, I'm really surprised that anyone uses shellac for anything anymore! I used to use it for sealing pine knots before priming, but they must have something else now. Hardwood floor refinishers used it for a first coat before varishing. But I thought that was all in the past. I think you'll find that a couple of coats of exterior satin polyurethane will hold up just fine. Good Luck, and keep on ashootin' Tommy2

I recently ordered a pair of grips from Marschal, and received them two weekends ago.

They are some SWEET grips, and their design is different from any other he currently has pictures of on his site. I need to take pics tonight anyway (I owe dickfunk a holster review now that I've been wearing one of his for close to a week now), I'll put some up here.

These grips help me w/ recoil. I went through 4 mags last time at the range and felt I could've gone much longer, with NO bruising to the webbing between thumb and index finger (I could usually only go 3 mags w/ plastic grips before the bruising would start to bug me).

hey thanks everyone for the input. I'm convinced now, will put in an order later in the week and let yall know how it goes when they come in.

I have wondered if Denis chose the wrong word in English when translating from Hungarian.

Okay, so this is the new standard pattern...

(Still in holster, camera ran out of charge after the previous out of holster image.)

The extension along the bottom helps with the grip, to where one of my "meat-handed" friends finds it a lot easier to hold now. The wood is thicker along the top of the backstrap, making for a more solid fit against the webbing between thumb and index finger. It's more a matter of personal preference on thickness, as the wood is, say, 1/8" thicker than plastic. I have to 're-learn' my grip a bit, but not by much.

Very nice, Dennis will certainly have more of my business in the future. ;D

EDIT: Just to state, these are made of walnut.

THANKS TOMMY2 for the info.
I am using outdoor poly as you suggested. Dennis used the word shellac, perhaps the wrong word.
At any rate my sweat demolished the finish which was beautiful, before I destroyed it.
So far 2 coats of poly several more to go, but it all ready looks good.
