Abstract: A firearm suppressor has a tube and a baffle stack carried within the tube. A first stack portion has a first inner volume defined by a first inner wall having a first diameter. A second stack portion has a second inner volume defined by a second inner wall having a second diameter unequal to the first diameter, the second stack portion being located forward of the first tube portion. A first outer volume has a first radial thickness formed between the first inner wall and the tube, and a second outer volume has a second radial thickness formed between the second inner wall and the tube. Vents in at least one of the stack portions allow gases and particulates to flow between the inner and outer volumes.

Abstract: A suppressor has a central expansion chamber and a coaxial expansion chamber. A front cap has at least one port in fluid communication with the coaxial chamber and an adjustable cover selectively movable between a closed position, in which the cover closes each port, and an open position, in which each port is open, thereby allowing selective control of the flow of gases and particulates exiting the coaxial chamber through each port.

Abstract: A firearm suppressor for dissipating the energy of discharge gases expelled by a discharge of a firearm has at least a first baffle and a second baffle, each baffle having a circumferential outer wall for enclosing an expansion chamber. The outer wall has a circumferential forward tapered surface and a circumferential rearward tapered surface, a taper angle of the forward tapered surface being equal to a taper angle of the rearward tapered surface. The baffles are assembled together in a coaxial baffle stack with the first baffle forward of the second baffle, the forward tapered surface of the second baffle engaging the rearward tapered surface of the first baffle for forming a tapered seal between the outer walls of the baffles, thereby limiting flow of firearm discharge gases from within the baffle stack through the tapered seal.

Abstract: A shock-tube firing device has an enclosure and at least two primer-ignition devices translatably carried within the enclosure. A threaded bore for each primer-ignition device is adjacent a forward end of the associated primer-ignition device and configured to receive a threaded shock-tube adapter. A trigger assembly is carried by the enclosure and comprises an actuation portion and a carrier portion, the actuation portion causing rearward motion of the carrier portion. A biasing element for each primer-ignition device causes forward motion of the associated primer-ignition device. A sear for each primer-ignition device causes compression of the associated biasing element during movement of the actuation portion, thereby compressing the biasing elements for causing forward motion of the primer-ignition devices.
