Breek Arms Sledgehammer Ambidextrous - Charging Handle

The Breek Arms Sledgehammer AR-15 charging handle is built around an advanced gas management system that combines a higher rear shelf, a keyway cut design, internal baffling, and strategic ports and relief cuts to comprehensively redirect gas away from the shooter's face — going further than the relief cuts found on standard upgraded charging handles. Built for all mil-spec AR-15 and M16 platforms, this charging handle is constructed from 7075-T6 aluminum with a Type III hardcoat anodized finish and weighs 1.1 oz.

The Breek Arms Sledgehammer is an ambidextrous AR-15 charging handle machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with a Type III hardcoat anodized finish, featuring large serrated latches, a higher rear shelf, a keyway cut design to prevent gas overflow, internal baffling to slow gas expansion, and strategic ports and relief cuts for gas redirection.

Large, serrated latches give confident manipulation from either side of the rifle even with gloves — sized and textured for secure grip without requiring a precise finger placement. The gas management system works in layers: the higher rear shelf blocks gas at the opening, the keyway cut design prevents gas overflow around the shelf, internal baffling slows the expansion of gas that does enter, and strategic ports and relief cuts redirect what remains away from the shooter's face. This layered approach is designed to perform on suppressed rifles where standard upgrades may not fully address the volume of gas blowback. 7075-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hardcoat anodizing provides structural integrity and surface durability for hard use. At 1.1 oz, the Sledgehammer adds minimal weight to the build.

Compatible with all mil-spec AR-15 and M16 rifles. Weight: 1.1 oz. Made in America.

7075-T6 aluminum. Type III hardcoat anodize. 1.1 oz. Made in America.

The right choice for AR-15 and M16 builds where comprehensive gas management is the primary requirement — suppressed rifles, high-volume shooting, and any mil-spec platform where standard gas deflection solutions fall short.
