Advanced porting of propellant gases for suppressing firearms

Abstract

A sound suppressor for a firearm comprised of a cylindrical housing having a rear end cap attached to the housing with means for mounting to the muzzle of a firearm. a front-end cap attached to the housing with having a centrally positioned aperture, and one or more baffle components positioned within the housing between the proximal and distal end. The baffle component is comprised of a cylindrical wall with two or more disc-like extrusion walls protruding external and perpendicular to cylinder wall with one or more apertures through the disc-like extrusions for redirecting propellant gases, an internal cone facing the proximal end with an aperture centered on the cone for the projectile to pass through. Redirecting of propellant gases is achieved with porting of the internal chamber of the proximal end through the alternate chambers formed between the cylindrical wall of the baffle and the suppressor tube and exiting through the dedicated apertures of the distal end.
