FIELD

The present disclosure generally relates to firearm accessories, and more particularly to firearm suppressors.

BACKGROUND

Various types of firearm suppressors are known. Suppressors are used to reduce sound emitted when a shot is fired by slowing movement of gas from the firearm. Conventional suppressors are designed to be connected to a firearm in one orientation in which an upstream end of the suppressor is connected to the firearm and a downstream end of the suppressor is opposite the upstream end.

SUMMARY

In one aspect, a firearm sound suppressor is configured for use with a firearm having a first type of suppressor connector or with a firearm having a second type of suppressor connector different than the first type. The firearm sound suppressor includes a housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The suppressor includes a projectile passage extending between the first and second ends of the housing through which a projectile can pass along a projectile axis through the firearm suppressor. Gas baffling is located in the housing. A first firearm connector at the first end of the housing has a first construction configured to connect to the first type of suppressor connector. A second firearm connector at the second end of the housing has a second construction configured to connect to the second type of suppressor connector.

In another aspect, a firearm sound suppressor includes a housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. A projectile passage extends between the first and second ends of the housing through which a projectile can pass along a projectile axis through the firearm suppressor. Gas baffling is located in the housing. Gas flow passaging in the housing is at least partially defined by the gas baffling. The gas flow passaging includes a first portion and a second portion. The second portion is substantially symmetrical to the first portion by reflection of the second portion about a plane extending transverse to the projectile axis or by reflection of the second portion about the plane and rotation of at least a segment of the second portion about the projectile axis.

Other objects and features of the present disclosure will be in part apparent and in part pointed out herein.
