Over-travel stops don't have anything to do with stopping the barrel from "swinging". They keep the excess movement of the trigger finger from disturbing the aim and causing the barrel to move out of sight alignment.

They are not really necessary; a shooter familiar with his gun will be able to handle over-travel with no problem, but like many other aids to shooting accurately, they do help.
