"Rohm never cloned any S&W revolvers, to my knowledge. The model 40 certainly isn't a S&W clone.
And, S&W parts won't work."
Agreed, internally and externally there are big differences. I actually bought about ten Roehms for about $5 a piece at law enforcement auctions and the quality ranged from hazardous to shootable and the RG40 with the swing out cylinder is one of the better ones.
Since parts are hard to find, I would try Ace hardware for the screw and alter a piece of aluminium to work. It is easily done, I had to devise a safety to import a Hämmerli 208 and used the end cap of an old Brinkmann Mini flashlight.
