Abstract
This technology relates to a one-piece sleeve which envelops a chamber with a baffle in a firearm suppressor body. The one-piece sleeve has an elongate opening, or slot, extending longitudinally along all, or part of, the length of the sleeve. The slot may be straight or curved. Also, there may be a plurality of slots. This way, because of the slot(s), the sleeve has increased flexibility and may be easily slightly opened up, and more easily removed from the elongate suppressor body for cleaning.
