Abstract
A modular noise suppressor for a firearm may have rearward and forward sections, and a front end cap. The rearward section may contain one or more baffles and can be configured to connect to the barrel of the firearm. The forward section can contain one or more baffles and may be connected to the rearward section. The front end cap can be connected to the forward section and provide a force to the baffles of the forward section. The connection between the rearward and forward sections can be in axial tension at least in response to the front end cap providing the force to the baffles of the forward section such that any loosening of the connection between the rearward and forward sections can be at least partially restricted in response to the axial tension.

Abstract
A hand guard attachment system for releasably attaching a hand guard to a firearm is disclosed herein. The system includes the hand guard having a proximal end configured to engage a forward end of a receiver of the firearm. The system further includes a tensioning assembly configured to interface between the hand guard and the forward end of the firearm. The tensioning assembly is further configured to selectively maintain an engaged position between the hand guard and the firearm such that the hand guard is releasably attached to the firearm without interfering with, or requiring removal of, the barrel and/or barrel nut connected to the receiver.

Abstract
A recoil booster for use with a sound suppressor for a firearm includes a hollow piston configured to be coupled to the firearm, a cap assembly, and a housing configured to be coupled to the sound suppressor. The cap assembly is removably coupled to the housing and includes an inner periphery configured to slidably guide a head portion of the piston. The housing includes an internal shoulder configured to abut the head portion of the piston in a nominal position of the booster. When the cap assembly is uncoupled from the housing, the piston is removable from the booster by sliding the head portion of the piston forward out of the cap assembly.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a silencer for reducing muzzle blast and noise of firearms or similar devices. The present silencer has a hollow cylindrical or other shape casing comprising front and rear end caps and an opening aligned along a longitudinal axis defining a passage for a projectile and propellant gases to emerge from the muzzle opening. A plurality of serially placed baffles of symmetrical or slanted orientation and intervening coaxial spacers are positioned within the casing and define a multitude of chambers among the baffles, spacers, and outer housing. The baffles shear propellant gases away from the projectile path and through openings or ports into additional chambers formed between the spacers and outer housing. The arrangement of baffles and spacers provides flow-impeding paths, dispersion, and controlled expansion of gases and lowers gas temperature to reduce audible noise and observable signature of the muzzle blast.

Abstract
A baffle configured for use in a firearm sound suppressor is disposed along a longitudinal axis that defines a path of travel for a projectile moving from a rearward side to a forward side. The baffle includes a rear bell portion having a first annular exterior surface and a forward bell portion having a second annular exterior surface. Along the longitudinal axis in a forward direction, the rear bell portion decreases in cross-section and the forward bell portion increases in cross-section. The baffle further includes a waist portion connecting the rear bell portion and the forward bell portion. A central bore extends along the longitudinal axis through the rear bell portion and defines an annular interior surface which is sized to receive a projectile traveling along the longitudinal axis. The baffle may be one of a plurality of baffles in a baffle stack.

Abstract
A booster system including a piston housing, a piston, a spring, and a rear cap attached to the piston housing. The piston housing includes an annular outer wall and an annular projection extending inward from the outer wall at a rear end of the piston housing. The piston is disposed within the piston housing and includes a bore and a radially outwardly extending flange at its front end. The spring is radially disposed between the piston housing and the piston in a space enclosed by the outwardly extending flange and the annular projection. The rear cap includes an end wall extending radially outward from a rear end of the piston housing. A side wall extends forward from the end wall and hangs over the outer wall of the piston housing at a radial distance from the outer wall of the piston housing. The sidewall of the rear cap includes an engagement surface for attachment to a body of a silencer.

Abstract
A method for reducing the weight of a silencer without compromising durability. By reducing the silencer housing wall thickness weight is removed from the silencer module. Areas on the housing where material is removed are primarily selected based on the internal pressure generated in a given chamber of the silencer. Further, removal of external material is selected based on the baffle arrangement. Individual chamber pressure is influenced by the muzzle pressure of the host firearm and the baffle style and baffle orientation within the silencer being used.

Abstract
A booster apparatus that is to be used with an autoloading handgun is provided. The proposed novel device utilizes a piston with five spokes which are secured against rotational movement by interfacing with five of ten indexing notches that are machined on the stopping flange of the booster housing. There are ten indexing notches provided which allows for ten positions of orientation for the silencer in relation to the bore of the host firearm. Unnecessary rotational movement is prevented by the indexing notches which are robust and secure the piston in place. This device when utilized with a handgun silencer will facilitate the proper semi automatic function of the host firearm.

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.

Abstract
An apparatus and method to install and index an eccentric noise suppressor. Once a noise suppressor is threadedly secured about the bore of a firearm a retention collar may be released by un-securing a retention cap. Releasing the tension which is placed on the retention collar affords the user an option of orienting the noise suppressor to any position which may be achieved by rotating the noise suppressor about the longitudinal axis of the barrel. This allows the user to place an eccentric noise suppressor in a position which does not obscure the sites of a handgun.
