Perfect for police force and military use
The BreachPop #1 has a channel in the face to fit a single piece of 25, 50 or 100 grain detonating cord or 1/2” wide sheet explosive. The curved channel and tamping both act to drastically increase the target effect. Reducing N.E.W. by half to achieve the same target effects is almost standard! BP1-5 and BP1-8 (5" and 8") make the perfect compact strip charges and our unique "mini-nunchuk" keeps the overall length short, the N.E.W. low and really pops on a deadbolt/doorknob combo! The BP1-12 and BP1-15 are substantial operational charges to ensure you catch both locking mechanisms and clear out more of the door! Use the BP1-18 to make a tri-fold linear that will pop open a solid wood or light metal door with only one strand of 50gr while still folding down into an easy to carry package. Order three to make one linear charge. The BP1-36 makes a fully tamped bi-fold linear charge that is fast to deploy, keeping you out of harms way for that initial breach. Order two to make one linear charge.
BreachPop #1
The BreachPop #2 has a channel in the face to fit a two pieces of 25, 50 or 100 grain detonating cord. The curved channel and tamping both act to drastically increase the target effect. Reducing N.E.W. by half to achieve the same target effects is almost standard! BP2-5 and BP2-8 (5" and 8") make the perfect compact strip charges and our unique "mini-nunchuk" keeps the overall length short, the N.E.W. low and really pops on a deadbolt/doorknob combo! The BP2-12 is a substantial operational charge to ensure you catch both locking mechanisms and clear out more of the door! Use the BP2-18 to make a robust tri-fold linear while still folding down into an easy to carry package. Order three to make one linear charge. The BP2-36 makes a fully tamped bi-fold linear charge that is fast to deploy, keeping you out of harms way for that initial breach. Order two to make one linear charge.
BreachPop #2
The BreachPop #3 has a channel in the face to fit three pieces of 25, 50 or 100 grain detonating cord or 3/4” wide sheet explosive. The shaped channel and tamping both act to drastically increase the target effect and reducing N.E.W. by half to achieve the same effect is almost standard! BP3-5 and BP3-8 (5" and 8") make the perfect strip charges and our unique "mini-nunchuk" keeps the overall length short, the N.E.W. low and really pops on a deadbolt/doorknob combo! These also work great for building a sliding hinge charge without needing anything else (like straws...) that can result in a low-order! The BP3-12 is robust strip charge to ensure you catch both locking mechanisms and clear out more of the door! The BP3-16 is a substantial operational charge to ensure you catch any hidden locking mechanisms above those that are visible. It can also be used to make a tri-fold linear that will pop open heavy steel doors (class II metal) while still folding up into a compact package. Order three to make one tri-fold linear charge. The BP1-36 makes a fully tamped bi-fold linear charge that is fast to deploy, keeping you out of harms way for that initial breach. Effective against heavy steel doors, both inward and outward opening! Order two to make one linear charge.
BreachPop #3
The BreachPop #1, #2 and #3 are sized differently to accomodate different detonating cord configurations.

Why Was BreachPop Created?An idea was introduced during a relevant training course utilizing a compact, water tamped door charge. More specifically, a thawed freezer popsicle was taped to the back of a charge for tamping purposes, which worked remarkably well. While freezer pops are tactically impractical, the idea stuck, and an operationally feasible version was to become the first product offered by P3D Solutions: cue the BreachPop. BreachPop has several key features that have made it a success wherever tested and shown. Starting with the premise of creating a reduced net explosive weight (NEW) charge utilizing tamping, initial testing showed the ability to half the NEW necessary to create the same effect at the breach point. The next step was to simplify the charge building process. With a premeasured charge container, and crystal-clear instructions, the basic charges can be constructed in under two minutes with no special knowledge beyond basic explosives handling. The final goal of interfacing with current gear was easily achieved by utilizing a standard M4 magazine pouch to model exterior dimensions. An M4 magazine pouch will hold three of the standard BreachPops or a single Magnum BreachPop, allowing Assaulters and Operators to continue to run their existing gear without modification. To sum it up, the overarching goal for the BreachPop was to meet the following criteria: Reduced N.E.W. – Water-gel tamping reduces the necessary N.E.W. by half or more. Reduced Blast Overpressure - The water-gel tamping medium absorbs up to 60% of the overpressure generated by the charge. Utilize Existing Fighting Systems – Fits in STANAG magazine pouches; M4, SCAR, HK416, etc. User Friendliness – Quick and easy preparation, with single procedural approach in all versions.

Who can order BreachPops?Sales of the BreachPop by P3D Solutions is limited to Law Enforcement and Military of US and allied countries. Contact us for specific requirements and restrictions based on your location.
-
How Do I Order BreachPop?Orders are placed directly with us offline, once we establish more information about you and your intended usage and verification. Contact us via email.
-
Do BreachPops contain any explosives?NO! The BreachPop can be shipped and carried with no explosive-related restrictions as it is up to the end user to load their explosives into the explosive charge container prior to use.
-
Do you have any shot data related to the BreachPops effectiveness on actual doors?Target data is available in the form of an information presentation. A more detailed shot log will be made available to customers who purchase BreachPop. We will continue to update and publish shot data as more is gathered. Ultimately, the end user is responsible for conducting training shots to ensure they have valid data based on differences in doors across the country and the world. For example, while the BreachPop #2 IDC provides a positive breach on the US interior doors it has been tested on, locking mechanism construction differences have shown them to NOT provide a 100% positive breach on European interior doors when placed in the same manner. It is imperative you have trained and breached essentially the same target, multiple times, prior to using the BreachPop in a live operation.
