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.

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.

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.
