Abstract
A mount designed to be integrated into a noise suppressor. The proposed apparatus encompasses an acme thread and two springs which serve as secondary latches. Offsetting the secondary spring latches in such a manner as to ensure one always fully seats into the indexing points of a flash hider mount limits the rotational movement of an installed noise suppressor which incorporates my proposed mount. Further, this method is more cost efficient than timing each flash hider with each noise suppressor mount.
Claims7
A firearm noise suppressor mount, comprising:
- an adapter including a flash hider configured for coaxial attachment to a firearm muzzle, a suppressor attachment thread, and a plurality of uniformly spaced external engagement teeth with notches there-between circumscribing the adapter and axially spaced from the suppressor attachment thread . . . do not simultaneously engage notches.
