I have my new Morini CM 162EI Electronic Trigger Air Pistol and I want to fit it to my hand better.
The Coach said to sue a compound with the consistency of PEANUT BUTTER. His con ran yearss ago. So I need suggestions or you tubes in English.
Thanks in advance.
After a 32 year lay off from shooting air pistols, I am loving shooting again. At 72, I think I'm doing ok. The PTO tomorrow will show. At least I should win Senior class.

" At least I should win Senior class."
Nah, I've got that nailed.
I use a moldable two part epoxy. It doesn't seem to matter what kind. Just cut off a hunk and knead it. Cheap and easy.

Re: Molding compound for my pistol grip ????
with molding, less is more.
don't start off with a little too much; then you might be over using it.
you can add more, but you can't add less.
one little bit at a time.

In the US there is QuikWood, and KwikWood. Functionally, I think they are pretty similar. KwikWood is made by "JB", who makes a wide range of good epoxy products, and it is sold at hardware & home stores.
I've used KwikWood to build up a prototype 3D printed grip. The grip was printed with a wood fiber composite, and was a good color match to the standard KwikWood, which is a light tan.
If you want to try to match the color of your grip, there is at least one other brand that come in a range of colors:

I haven't tried KwikWood on a Rink grip, but Rinks (in particular) have a very oily finish that is usually far from fully dry when you get a new one. You may want to apply a solvent like alcohol to the area you are going to work on to remove as much oil as possible. Otherwise I suspect the epoxy won't adhere very well.
As usual, a lot of this has been discussed before. Here is a fairly complete discussion:
