It's been a long time since I had the grip off one of these...

There are two Allen Bolts that go inside the grip, one secures the grip to the frame, the other goes through the trigger guard and then into the frame. You have to remove the trigger guard from the frame, before the grip can come free from the pistol, so unscrew both allen bolts from the grip, then push out the pins forward of the trigger in the frame until the trigger guard comes free, then you can remove the grip.

I think that's it, but as I say it was a long time ago, so I may have omitted the odd detail.

These are excellent pistols, a classic IMO, I hope you get a lot of enjoyment from your replacements!
