JP Enterprises (Competition Only) Low Mass Buffer JPLMB oung Manufacturing is the licensed manufacturer of the HMB P60-12585 $59.95 Ybolt. The HMB Bolt by HM Defense eliminates the pass-through cam-pin hole and replaces it with a cam-pin socket and radiused cam-pin design. The new patented design eliminates the natural weak point of Mil-Spec bolts by significantly increasing the amount of metal (and strength) at the cam-pin location. The result: NO MORE BROKEN BOLTS! The HMB Bolt also reduces contact be- tween cam pin and firing pin, enabling smoother operation of the firing pin, bolt lugs and aft gas rings. The new cam-pin socket also retains lubrication for extended operations. Comes with a phos- phate cam pin.
