Fortunately they did no harm to the internals, a gunsmith inspected it and blessed it as totally stock.
Like the OP, I went with some Magna's to replace the rubber grips.
It is without a doubt the most accurate handgun I have ever owned, period.
This is a double action group at 20 yards on a steel rabbit:
40 yards single action:
Today a police trade in Model 64 is not a lot more than the $235 I paid in 2006. A local police supply house has trade in Model 64's all the time, they are often on sale at $279....

Love it, and wow those grips do look familiar!
