Of course...to each his own, but i would keep the GI grips on. They have more history and a story to tell!
Then you can take your time to find an original set and keep them with the gun.
Here's a PIC of my HSC with clear GI grips. I do have a original set but can't get myself to replace the ones that have been on there for 60 years!
The back of the photo is dated Sept of 1944
