THE Breechtool™

Are you tired of using your little finger on a 21st century weapon system?

Welcome to NHMD Ltd, the innovative design company behind the Breechtool™.

We firmly believe that achiving excellence in the demanding roles of soldiers and weapon system users requires the use of top-notch kit and equipment that dont necessarily need to be complex, over-engineered & over promising. We look for simple robust solutions that will last, and since 2009 we have stuck to this ethos and implementing it to iur ever expanding range.

Our commitment begins with manufacturing the right tools for the job – tools that deliver on their promises and more.

The Breechtool™, our branded tactical equipment, has demonstrated its effectiveness across all weapon systems that have a barrel extension chamber or “breech chamber”, or as the British Armed Forces Know it as “the monkeys a**hole”. All our Breechtool variats come with a lifetime warranty.

We take pride in being the offical supplier to law enforcement units such as the London MET, Merseyside Police Tactical Firearms Units. We also collaborate and develop products with the West Midlands Police Tactical Firearms Units and the Infantry Trials and Development Unit (ITDU).

The Breechtool™ is the outcome of extensive product development and research conducted by end-users, involving nearly 1000 British regular and Reserve soldiers.

Through human-centered design, we cater to a diverse range of end-users, including Special Forces, British Army, Navy, USMC, Tactical security branches, US Army, and the Royal Marines.

Our customer extends to police, law enforcement agencies, and international military surplus stores with online presence. Designed from the ground up, the Breechtool™ product range serves as a comprehensive weapon system cleaning solution.

Its award-winning, patented, shape, simplifes what other tools on the market make a hastle. Did we mention – it lasts?! With no wires or threaded brushes, our tools don’t have an end-life. So much so they all have lifetime warranties. The uniqe shape allows carbon and dirt removal to work seamlessly on any weapon system’s upper and lower kit, regardless of size or caliber, including 5.56mm and 7.62mm.

We challenged market leaders in the weapon cleaning field with the best operators, consistently proving the inefficiency and outdated thinking of those “solutions” which also happened to be twice the price, or in terms of a chamber brush once you’ve gone through a few it already costs more.

With a focus on the barrel extension chamber, lugs, or breech, the Breechtool™ boasts a patented design and disposable nylon brushes effective on any weapon, be it a rifle, machine gun, military or sports hunting equipment, coupled with our other tactical products.

Experience superior and efficent cleaning for all weapon systems, from Glock 17’s to GMPGs, with the revolutionary Breechtool™.

"[I am a writer for SWAT magazine]. I have had a chance to work with the Breechtool, and have some observations: I like it - works on my personal AR15's, AR180, MP5, 1918A2 BAR, and 1919A4 machineguns for the 'nooks & crannies'. Nothing gets dirty faster than a full auto fired with surplus ammo. I can also see it's usefulness with semi-autos like the French 49/56, Hakim, Rashid etc. where disassembly and reassembly can involve the use of 'harsh language'.  Even some of my bolt guns are cleaner in the locking lug areas of the receiver now"

"I've used this quite a lot now on SA80's,LMG's and GPMG's and found it very useful, the "main tool" which is especially good at cleaning the " monkeys arse " on the SA80. It cut cleaning time and save me from using my NCO finger."

"It's not often I am amazed by a tool especially one for cleaning a weapon, as most are useless, break easily or are badly designed, but today I had the pleasure of using your Breechtool. The thing is the nuts. At last something we can actually use to clean our rifle with. And a brush that can get into all the right places."

"The Breechtool is absolutely brilliant. It saves about half an hour scratching around in the breech and saves your fingers from digging around inside. It only takes a couple of minutes to get the breech clean and the corporals can't figure out how I always manage to get my rifle spotless when they are picking up everyone else. It's a brilliant bit of kit and a few blokes in my platoon are always asking me if they can borrow it during rifle cleaning."

"Stephen introduced me to the [Breechtool]. Quite handy in cleaning my Colt 6920. The star chamber hasn’t been this clean since leaving the factory. The various components make scraping carbon a snap. I’m impressed with this handy and versatile tool. Well done!

"I'm not military but a competition shooter using straight-pull AR15's in National matches. Our guns ore not gas operated so don't get so dirty but the Breech Tool is great for getting into the hard to reach places in an AR receiver, especially the lugs on the barrel extension. Conventional bristle brushes get destroyed very quickly but the BreechTool gets right in the hard to reach corners with the angled brush heads and a patch on the end. Excellent piece of kit and just as useful in .22 semi-auto rifle and LBP receivers which are notoriously difficult to keep clean. It really gets in there. Thoroughly recommended."
