But pouring the liquid acrylic in the dovetail and around the dimple or in the holes is the reason it's so secure.
You can either put a drop of Super Glue in the dovetail or you can just use a pure friction fit. I've done a bunch of them over the last 40 years and have never had anyone bring one back because the insert came out.
