What may be worth while, however, are the cam pins that are round instead of square. They don't have rollers; they're just round. I don't know if they would be any better than the square ones, but they might be worth looking into. They may reduce wear on the upper without sacrificing anything. I have no idea, I'm just saying that it's worth seeing where it goes. My gut tells me they're okay but probably don't offer much advantage over the square ones.
Ah I see. Well I had never had issues with square ones. I do have the roller but I get what you t saying. Instead of having the cam head move just keep it one piece. No moving parts.
