Abstract: A sound suppressor for a firearm, such as a shotgun, may include a rear end cap, a plurality of baffle units and a front end cap that are configured to be assembled in an end-to-end arrangement. These elements may be secured to one another with one or more elongated coupling elements that extend through the end-to-end arrangement, along with one or more complementary securing elements. Such a sound suppressor may lack an outer housing. A plurality of guide rods may extend through an interior of such a sound suppressor in a manner that provides the framework for a passage for a projectile as it moves through the sound suppressor. A barrel coupling element that may be used with a sound suppressor is also disclosed, as are methods for tailoring the length of a sound suppressor and for customizing the types and arrangement of baffles used in the sound suppressor.

Abstract: A suppressor for a firearm is provided, wherein the suppressor can be selectively oriented relative to the firearm. The suppressor has an elongate body, a piston assembly and a cam assembly. A piston of the piston assembly can be fixedly attached to the barrel of a firearm. An indexing ring is radially fixed relative to the piston. The cam lever is selectively movable between a second position, in which the indexing ring is fixed relative to the elongate body, and a first position, in which the indexing ring can rotate relative to the elongate body.

Abstract: A flash suppressor adapted to be attached to a muzzle of a barrel of a firearm coaxially therewith, the flash suppressor having a base, a tapered waist portion and a shoulder surface. The flash suppressor further having a plurality of tines, in which each tine of the plurality of times has a different mass to affect sound reduction as a result of expanding, and combusting gases exiting the muzzle of the firearm when the firearm is discharged.

Abstract: A noise suppressor system for attachment to a firearm including a barrel having a longitudinal axis. The noise suppressor system including the combination of: a flash suppressor adapted to be attached to the muzzle of the barrel coaxially therewith, a noise suppressor including a proximal mount assembly having a bore for coaxially receiving the flash suppressor, and a means for selectively securely coupling the noise suppressor system to the firearm.

Abstract: The invention relates to devices for attaching or removing a sound suppressor or other auxiliary device to a firearm. The device has a mount body threadedly attachable to a muzzle attachment device attached to the muzzle of a gun. A locking spring extends around a portion of the mount body, and has serrated pawls for engaging a portion of the muzzle attachment device. An annular, rotatable locking collar attaches to the mount body and extends over the locking spring. As the locking collar is rotated, a reduction in diameter of the inner surface of the locking collar can urge the pawl into secured contact with the muzzle attachment device.

Abstract: A device for suppressing noise from a firearm. In one aspect, the suppressor has an elongate body that defines a bullet pathway extending longitudinally therethrough. The elongate body may define a plurality of adjacent chambers spaced along its longitudinal axis. The suppressor may also have at least two elongate body shells configured to selectively substantially envelop the elongate body and substantially enclose each of the adjacent chambers. The body shells of the suppressor are designed to be easily removed to clean the chambers of the suppressor.
