Yes... the insert was either punched out for inserts only or inserts and the Aux .22LR cylinder, if ordered.

I definitely like the idea of the nylon ties being used as the "fingers" that slip into the inserts. On the factory box insert, they are cardboard and break off after awhile. I'm going to glue some to the underside of the cardboard ones to reinforce them.
