BREACH® LARGE LEVER AMBIDEXTROUS CHARGING HANDLE FOR AR-15

BREACH® LARGE LEVER AMBIDEXTROUS CHARGING HANDLE FOR AR-15 Reviews & Ratings

The Aero Precision BREACH® is a rugged, ambidextrous, precision-manufactured charging handle for the AR15 platform. The BREACH's design utilizes a reinforced 7075-T6 aluminum bar that is up to the most demanding tasks. Its ambidextrous levers feature a patent-pending, dual spring system, that directs the force-of-use into the robust charging handle body. This allows the shooter to use a one-sided charging technique without compromising the part — a pitfall for traditional mil-spec charging handles.

The large lever configuration provides an extended operating surface, perfect for a user with bigger hands, or someone who wants a larger surface for manipulation of the charging handle.

FEATURES:
  • Ambidextrous Controls: Ergonomically designed 7075 Aluminum levers allow the user to easily charge their firearm with either hand, while remaining low profile and comfortable when slung.
  • Robust Construction: Reduced chamfer angles on the 7075 Aluminum reinforced bar design provide a strong foundation for the BREACH® that is resistant to rotational flex or breakage.
  • Patent-pending Lever Mechanism: Transfers force-of-use away from the roll pins and into the top/head portion of the reinforced bar protecting the charging handle in the most demanding circumstances.
  • Gas Deflection Shelf: Aligns with the upper receiver to redirect gas flow away from the users face when shooting suppressed.
  • Functional Design: It is not all just good looks. Stylistic cuts on the charging handle also help to clear stuck on carbon and debris from the upper receiver, while the spacer design seals and protects the lever mechanism from debris.

Perfect CH with big optics
The larger charging handles are perfect if you are running an LPVO or large optic, or to make it easier to operate. This product is well-made and works well.

Good build quality
This is a well-built, solid charging handle with good fit and finish. The Breach gives you a small bit of relief on systems with gas blow back, as good as most can do. I have both large and small, and there isn't a big difference, but the large it a little easier to pull when you are wearing gloves.

Ambidextrous charging handle
Once again an awesome product from Aero Precision. The Breach is quality constructed and functions smooth and comfortably. Not only does it operate perfectly it also looks super cool. Its like having a Chevrolet Camaro for awhile and then you step it up to a Mazzarati. The Breach is Top of the line with a price that's very affordable.

Ambidextrous and perfect size!
I wanted an ambidextrous charging handle to replace the standard size factory handle on my Ruger AR556 MPR. The Breach is wider than the factory handle. I wasnt sure it I would benefit much from the extra width but not I have had it installed I simply dont know if I could switch back. The Breach fits perfectly, finish is great. I couldnt be more pleased.

Solid and smooth charging handle
Charging handle is very solid and has a great feel to it. Another quality Aero piece that functions and looks well. Ambidextrously run easily and has good features built in with the gas deflection and knurling on the front.
