Grip sleeve for P-64

Just toying around with accessories, and thought I would try one of these to help deal with recoil.

Any recommendations? I have the Hogue Jr. sleeve, but don't really care for the finger groove or the incredibly tight fit (concerned that rust will find a home under there, unless I strip it off regularly and check...).

Ideas?

Thanks!

I didn't have much luck finding other options as far as grip sleeves go. The Hogue seems to be the one, if not only. I WILL tell you to BE CAREFUL taking that sucker off if you intend to put it back on later. I had 'em on some of my P64s and took them off to access the hammer spring to change. Upon putting them back on (and I WAS careful...) they developed a small split in the bottom corner. This, of course, has grown upward and now I'm just waiting for it (them) to eventually pop off one day with use. Until then....
