I have a pair of ivory grips without a screw. They fit a k-frame S&W and are held in place with a friction fit post and spring.
Hope this helps.

If those aren't ivory, I want to buy stock in the company that made them.

The "hot pin" method is often suggested. I just don't buy it. My thought is that if I can't tell the difference, that means they are ivory.
