It is a pencil eraser hot glued in place, old school stop, it's been there since 1990 and 60,000 rounds.

An oldie but a goodie.
Learned that one from an 'old-timer' back in my PPC and Bullseye days.
It worked really well to keep from having to drill for a set-screw as an overtravel.
All you need is an exacto knife.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

The Model 18 like all K frames are part of the best handgun platforms ever made. This platform, with its many different calibers, grip frames and barrel lengths, can accommodate any situation.
