  • Patent number: 12044495
    Abstract: A coaxial gas flow silencer for a firearm having an outer sleeve or cylinder forming an outer surface of the silencer and an inner sleeve or cylinder forming an inner surface of the silencer. Within the inner cylinder is a core portion having a bore through which a projectile will travel, and one or more expansion chambers for expanding exhaust gas from the firing of a cartridge. The space between the inner an outer cylinders forms a first passage for a first portion of exhaust gas, exiting the silencer through a number of radially arranged openings at a periphery of an end plate at the muzzle end of the silencer. The inner cylinder and core portion form a second passage for a second portion of exhaust gas exiting via the bore through a central opening in the face plate.
