Abstract: A bullet suppressor for lowering the decibel level of a fired bullet from a firearm is disclosed. The effect of the suppressor is the trapping of exhaust gases trailing a bullet, such that the bullet exits the suppressor but the exhaust gases remain within the suppressor.

Other mechanical elements are also disclosed for more intricate systems within the suppressor. The trapping of the gases significantly reduces the sound of the gunshot.
