  • Patent number: 10883787
    Abstract: A novel locking mechanism is provided for a noise suppressor mount for a firearm. The locking mechanism comprises a muzzle attachment comprising a plurality of locking positions, a collar, and a locking arm comprising a locking notch, wherein the collar rotates to move the locking notch in a circular direction into a locking position. In some cases, the locking mechanism further comprises a protection arm comprising a blocking arm, wherein, with the locking notch moved into the locking position and without a muzzle attachment being fully inserted within the collar, the protection arm is set to an engaged state in which the blocking arm has been extended toward the central portion of the collar, thereby preventing subsequent full insertion of a muzzle attachment, and wherein, with the locking notch moved into the locking position and with a muzzle attachment fully inserted, the protection arm is set to a disengaged state.
