Most Helpful Positive Review A Step Above
I'm a new product junkie so naturally I picked one of these up as soon as they were available on the Breek website since they weren't in stock on Optics Planet yet. I replaced the Warhammer with the Sledgehammer on my AR15 and I love it. The fit and finish are near perfect. There are no sharp edge...

Most Helpful Negative Review Didn't work with a piston converted upper.
Has weird ridges inside where the bolt key rides and wouldn't slide on a Adams Arms piston carrier. Works ok on DI upper, but what are the ridges even for?

Review of Breek Arms Sledgehammer AR-15 Ambidextrous Charging Handle

by JT, Verified Owner from NE, United States Written on November 5, 2025
Fit and finish is very good. Ambidextrous handle is much better than single sided stock charging handle. And it does a much better job of directing gas away from my face when shooting suppressed than the stock charging handle.
Pros:
  • Looks cool
  • Easier to charge rifle
  • directs gas away from face
Cons:
  • none really
Best Used for:
  • everything
Would recommend: Yes

my new favorite charging handle

by neb grendel, Verified Owner from NE, United States Written on September 21, 2025
The sledgehammer does a great job of gas redirection. Its not as tough as a radian raptor but its also half the price. I have a couple of these now on some rifles geared more to hunting and they are fantastic. Ive seen some forums talk about the roll pins coming out but that hasnt been my experience. Hard use rifles may need to watch the roll pins but i would still highly recommend.
Pros:
  • Price
  • Build quality
  • gas redirection
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes

Great fit and easy to install

by MJL, Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on September 20, 2025
This sledgehammer is awesome looking and it functions phenomenally. If your back and forth between the 3 major brands I see debated on gun bro sites and the comments always bring up the sledgehammer. Do it. Buy it.

My new go-to charging handle

by HC, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on September 16, 2025
I'll be getting this handle for any future builds. Much better than the Warhammer handle by Breek, and best price for value compared to other brands including Raptor, which is similar in build. The handles on the Warhammer are a little thin for my liking especially with heavier springs, and less comfortable to use. This one seems well built.
Would recommend: Yes

Smooth and effective.

by Pete, Verified Owner from LA, United States Written on August 17, 2025
I replaced a radian raptor SD handle with this.. much better. I’m using slip 2000 grease on my Bootleg BCG and the top and sides of the sledgehammer. SO nice with the slightly wider grip and more effective at gas mitigation with my MK18 and RC2 can than the raptor.
Pros:
  • Better gas mitigation
Cons:
  • None so far.
Best Used for:
  • Ar15, 5.56 223
Would recommend: Yes

Great product

by Travis, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on August 13, 2025
Easy to get ahold of with the larger ends. Makes charging the rifle a lot faster while still being able to keep your eyes down range.
