Suppressor assembly
A suppressor assembly for a firearm including a barrel, a bore and a muzzle end. The suppressor assembly may include a gas block mount positioned about the barrel, and outer tube configured to be attached to the gas block mount, and a baffle configured to be attached to the muzzle end of the firearm. The baffle is telescopically received and configured to have a clearance fit with the outer tube. The baffle may also include one or more outer edges configured to scrape debris from the inner surface of the outer tube when the baffle is removed from the outer tube.
1. A suppressor assembly attached to a firearm, the firearm including a barrel, a bore, and a muzzle end, the suppressor assembly comprising:
a gas block mount positioned about the barrel and disposed substantially proximal to the muzzle end of the barrel;
an outer tube, said outer tube comprising a first end and a second end, the first end of said outer tube attached to the gas block mount, the second end of said outer tube extending beyond the muzzle end of the firearm;
a baffle comprising a first end and a second end, said baffle telescopically received and configured to have a clearance fit with said outer tube, the first end of the baffle attached to the muzzle end of the firearm.
2. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein said baffle includes an outer surface comprising one or more edges, the one or more edges facing and in close proximity to an inner surface of said outer tube.
3. The suppressor assembly of claim 2 , wherein the one or more edges extend longitudinally along the outer surface of said baffle.
4. The suppressor assembly of claim 2 , wherein the one or more edges are configured to scrape debris from the inner surface of said outer tube when said baffle is removed from said outer tube.
5. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first end of said baffle is screwed over the muzzle end of the firearm.
6. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first end of said outer tube is screwed over a portion of said gas block mount.
7. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein said baffle is secured against a shoulder formed on an outer surface of the barrel proximate the muzzle end of the firearm.
8. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein said gas block mount defines a chamber with an outer surface of the barrel, the chamber of said gas block mount in communication with the bore of the firearm through one or more ports.
9. The suppressor assembly of claim 8 , wherein a portion of projectile gas created during firing of the firearm is directed through the one or more ports into the chamber to pressurize the chamber.
10. The suppressor assembly of claim 9 , wherein the portion of projectile gas directed into the chamber during firing of the firearm is directed back into the bore through the one or more ports after pressure in the bore is less than pressure in the chamber.
11. The suppressor assembly of claim 8 , wherein the one or more ports are angled relative to a longitudinal axis of the bore of the firearm.
12. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein said outer tube extends along the length of said baffle.
13. The suppressor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second end of said outer tube and the second end of said baffle extend axially the same distance beyond the muzzle end of the firearm.
