If you do shoot it ( and I would, at least a few rounds ) I would strongly recommend that you use substitute grip panels. MOP is very brittle and also very expensive now. You will never be able to replace them. I have a Colt 70 series Gold Cup with 200 dollar ( and that was 15 years ago ) MOP grips, when I take it to the range the grips come off and substitute grips go on.
