According to various embodiments, the firearm suppressor can include a housing. The housing can include an outer surface, an inner cavity, and an attachment mechanism that attaches the housing to a barrel of a firearm. The inner cavity can accommodate a baffle. The firearm suppressor also can include a lighting attachment. The lighting attachment can include a power source and a lighting mechanism. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A baffle insert assembly configured for insertion into a firearm suppressor housing, the firearm suppressor housing comprising an inner cavity and an attachment mechanism that is configured to attach the firearm suppressor housing at a location proximate to a barrel of a firearm, the baffle insert assembly comprising: a plurality of baffles formed by bending a baffle insert blank formed from a single sheet of metal, wherein the plurality of baffles comprises a first baffle that is angularly offset from a second baffle by an angle, wherein the first baffle comprises a first planar surface, and wherein the second baffle comprises a second planar surface. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The baffle insert assembly of claim 1, wherein the firearm suppressor housing further comprises sidewalls, and wherein the baffle insert assembly is configured to contact the sidewalls to align the plurality of baffles within the firearm suppressor housing. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The baffle insert assembly of claim 1, wherein the plurality of baffles further comprises a third baffle angularly offset from the first baffle by a further angle. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The baffle insert assembly of claim 3, wherein the angle is equivalent to the further angle. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) The baffle insert assembly of claim 3, wherein the angle is different from the further angle. ### Claim 6 A firearm suppressor comprising: a firearm suppressor housing comprising an outer surface, an inner cavity that accommodates a baffle insert assembly, and an attachment mechanism that attaches the firearm suppressor housing to a barrel of a firearm; and the baffle insert assembly, wherein the baffle insert assembly comprises a plurality of baffles that comprises a first baffle that is angularly offset from a second baffle by an angle, wherein the first baffle comprises a first planar surface, wherein the second baffle comprises a second planar surface, and wherein the baffle insert assembly is formed by bending a baffle insert blank formed from a single sheet of metal. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The firearm suppressor of claim 6, wherein the plurality of baffles comprises ten or more baffles. ### Claim 8 (depends on 6) The firearm suppressor of claim 6, wherein the first baffle is angularly offset from a third baffle by a further angle. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The firearm suppressor of claim 8, wherein the angle is equivalent to the further angle. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The firearm suppressor of claim 8, wherein the angle is different from the further angle. ### Claim 11 (depends on 6) The firearm suppressor of claim 6, wherein the firearm suppressor housing comprises sidewalls, and wherein the baffle insert assembly is configured to contact the sidewalls to align the plurality of baffles within the firearm suppressor housing. ### Claim 12 (depends on 6) The firearm suppressor of claim 6, wherein the baffle insert assembly is formed from a material selected from a group of materials consisting of titanium, aluminum, and steel. ### Claim 13 A method comprising: obtaining, at a forming device, a baffle insert blank formed from a single sheet of metal; and bending, at the forming device, the baffle insert blank to obtain a baffle insert assembly that comprises a plurality of baffles comprising a first baffle that is angularly offset from a second baffle by an angle, wherein the first baffle comprises a first planar surface, wherein the second baffle comprises a second planar surface, wherein the baffle insert assembly can be located within a firearm suppressor housing, and wherein the firearm suppressor housing comprises an outer surface, an inner cavity that accommodates the baffle insert assembly, and an attachment mechanism that attaches to a location proximate to a barrel of a firearm. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the plurality of baffles comprises ten or more baffles. ### Claim 15 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the first baffle is angularly offset from a third baffle by a further angle. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The method of claim 15, wherein the angle is equivalent to the further angle. ### Claim 17 (depends on 15) The method of claim 15, wherein the angle is different from the further angle. ### Claim 18 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the firearm suppressor housing comprises sidewalls, and wherein the baffle insert assembly is configured to contact the sidewalls to align the plurality of baffles within the firearm suppressor housing. ### Claim 19 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein each of the plurality of baffles comprises an aperture through which a bullet fired from the firearm passes. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The method of claim 19, wherein aligning the plurality of baffles comprises aligning apertures of the plurality of baffles.
