Thats the metal shell follower, an aftermarket one.
That whole factory lip in that area is more or less removed and polished so the shell just slides in with less friction than the factory parkerised finish.
There is a wee lip inside on each side of the mag tube that retains the follower but doesnt seem to effect loading.
ive seen pics of guns that have had way more metal taken out than what ive done
