Just curious how you like. Earl sells them.
Wow. Interesting. My understanding is that you heat it up with a hair dryer and it then molds to the grip. But you can get it off should you ever decide right?I love mine.....
If I ever had a complaint about the P99 it was how slippery the frame feels or even gets when you spend a afternoon in the dessert....
the Dermagrip fixed all this....
I like the fact that it is kind of permanent... unless you cut it off..
it will not move once it is on the frame... and it has a good texture IMHO
For this severely tool challenged individual it sounds like a recipe for disaster.No it is not hard... but take your time....
the Derma grip is not cylinder shaped.. but rather like a cone...
I put the smaller diameter end to the top of the grip and started heating it up on the top end .... making sure it is positioned where I wanted it.
I then worked my way down..... you will have to cut off the excess material on the magwell with a exacto knife.
It will help to have a second set of hands that can hold the frame in a stable position so you can use your hands to hold the derma grip in place and move the blow dryer around
I got mine today for my brand new P99 AS 9mm and I like it a lot so far. I'm going to shoot with it soon and can't wait! I got my blackhawk serpa II holster too, so all in all I'm set to have some fun at the range. Been thinking about getting a threaded barrel and compensator in the future. Uncut, you have a compensator at all?I am afraid the plastic on the P99 won't bubble.....but I think you got the idea... it doesn't take as much heat as it did for the kydex holster..... just make sure to keep moving the blowdryer
A little photo help...oh, and of course the pictures:

I think I have a little more work to do on it though. took forever with my hair dryer.
