Abstract
A device for suppressing noise from a firearm. In one aspect, the suppressor has an elongate body that defines a bullet pathway extending longitudinally therethrough. The elongate body may define a plurality of adjacent chambers spaced along its longitudinal axis. The suppressor may also have at least two elongate body shells configured to selectively substantially envelop the elongate body and substantially enclose each of the adjacent chambers. The body shells of the suppressor are designed to be easily removed to clean the chambers of the suppressor.
