Patent attributes
A noise suppressor design is provided that improves reduction of muzzle blast without increasing the size or weight of the noise suppressor. In various embodiments, a noise suppressor for a firearm might comprise a central axis and a plurality of baffles that each nests within adjacent baffles along the central axis. A first baffle and a second baffle of the plurality of baffles might each comprise a proximal end having a first/second aperture oriented along the central axis and a plurality of notches in the proximal end adjacent to the first/second aperture and aligned in a first orientation. A third baffle of the plurality of baffles might comprise a proximal end having a third aperture oriented along the central axis and a single notch in the proximal end adjacent to the third aperture and aligned in a second orientation that is 90 degrees relative to the first orientation.
