Real Avid Breech Tool

With all the new guns and gear coming out in 2025, it can be easy to miss out on smaller releases, like this brand-new muzzleloader tool from Real Avid. Although it was created and perfected specifically for modern in-line muzzleloaders, we invite you to examine the number of tools in the Real Avid Breech Plug 4-in-1 Scraper and note that there are several components that would be useful for a variety of shooting, hunting, and survival-related tasks.

The bright orange, easy-to-carry, hard-to-lose unit is compact and lightweight enough that shooters can simply park it in a possibles bag and leave it there until needed. It has pushbutton mechanisms to deploy the individual tools, so you're not fumbling around with sharp objects with fingers that have been pre-greased and dirtied by shooting. 

The Breech Plug 4-in-1 Scraper boasts two different scrapers for thorough, detailed cleaning of the screw-in breech plugs found on today’s in-line muzzleloaders, and a 1.4"-long flash channel scraper to ensure primer ignition has unobstructed travel to the powder load. And in a modern twist on the traditional percussion cap nipple pick, the Breech Plug 4-in-1 Scraper comes with a 1.3"-long wire that slides in and out of a protective tube to clean carbon build-up from inside the flash hole. MSRP $29.99; www.realavid.com
