Description

Standard AR-15 takedown and pivot pins get the job done, but their flush profile makes removal with dirty or cold hands more difficult than it needs to be. The CMMG 55AFF3B HD pin set addresses that with two straightforward improvements: each pin is slightly longer than mil-spec to give you more to grip, and each features a divot machined into the body so your fingernail or a pointed tool has a positive seat for pushing the pin out. Simple changes, noticeably better field-strip experience.

HD vs Standard Mil-Spec Takedown Pins

Standard mil-spec takedown and pivot pins are plain cylinders — no grip features and no extra length. They function correctly but offer no advantage for removal. The CMMG HD designation means these pins have been modified specifically to make disassembly easier: the added length gives your fingers more surface area to push against, and the divot gives a tool or fingernail a defined contact point rather than a smooth round surface. Detents and springs are not included and should be sourced separately.
