Patent attributes
A muzzle adapter for a firearm has an adapter element defining an adapter bore centered on an adapter bore axis, a portion of the adapter bore being internally threaded to removably mate with the threaded muzzle, the adapter element having a tapered exterior surface portion, the adapter element having an externally threaded portion, a muzzle device defining a device bore and having a tapered internal bore portion adapted to be closely received on the tapered exterior surface portion of the adapter element, a collar element internally threaded to mate with the externally threaded portion of the adapter element, and the collar element being axially engaged to the muzzle device and rotatably independent of the muzzle device, such that rotation of the collar draws the muzzle device onto the adapter element and wedges the tapered portion of the adapter element into the tapered internal bore portion of the muzzle device.
