Please be careful if you feel you have to remove the grips. They are hard rubber (gutta percha) which becomes brittle over time and can crack easily.
The grips are held on by the top and bottom sliding into cuts in the frame, then lugs in the stocks dropping into cuts at the back. To remove the grips, it is best to remove the magazine and insert a finger into the magazine well, and gently push outward at the back while pushing the grip rearward with the other hand. But if there is any indication of cracking, stop and let it go.
There are repro grips, but the originals are always better.
