If the gun is in a static display case, then you could leave the original grips on it, but if the gun is handled frequently then I would store them....and yes all 60+ year old bakelite is brittle and prone to breakage. One accidental drop of the gun on a hard floor could cost you hundreds of dollars in value. The g-forces involved in firing the gun could also give you a really bad day.
