Abstract

A sound suppressor for a firearm includes a plurality of segments attached end to end to form a container having an entrance orifice and an exit orifices defining a firing axis. Baffles are positioned in some of the segments. The baffles have a plate from which a truncated cone projects. The cone defines an opening aligned with the firing axis. The opening is offset from the geometric center of the plates.
