Disclosed herein are suppressors for use with firearms or the like, and methods of making and using such firearm suppressors. Some aspects relate to a firearm suppressor including a helical portion extending helically around a cylindrical body portion, at least a section of the helical portion being canted such that it extends radially outward from the cylindrical body portion at an oblique angle relative to a plane normal to the central longitudinal axis. In some cases, the helical portion is canted distally. In another respect, a firearm suppressor including a helical portion extending radially outward from and helically around a cylindrical body portion having a bore to define a crest and a root, and at least one channel extends from an inner opening along the bore to an outer opening along the root of the helical portion. In yet another respect, a firearm suppressor including a cylindrical wall defining a central bore extending about a longitudinal axis, and one or more cooling bores spaced from the central bore, the cooling bores extending into the wall offset from the central longitudinal axis.

Methods and systems are provided for firearm sound suppressors including a gas deflector. In one example, a suppressor comprises a housing, a projectile entrance, a projectile exit, one or more baffles, and a deflector chamber. The deflector extending outward from the housing and the deflector curving around a central axis of the suppressor.

A wipe-cutting tool integrated into a firearm or firearm accessory, or component thereof, which can be replaced in the field. The muzzle accessories may include a suppressor, a brake, a compensator or a flash suppressor. The components may include an endcap, the end of an accessory, a muzzle or a baffle. Cutting blades are integrated into the firearm or muzzle accessory and may be integrally formed with the suppressor or compensator tube as well as with a muzzle end cap attached to the tube. When pressed into a substrate of material suitable to form a wipe the cutting blade separates a wipe from the substrate which can be readily inserted into the suppressor or compensator at the muzzle end.

A wiped muzzle device, such as a compensator, brake or flash suppressor. The wipe improves the function of the muzzle device by forcing muzzle blast gases through the ports or vents to either counter the force vector created by the muzzle blast gases or alter the mixing of gases to reduce muzzle flash.

An apparatus is disclosed for a firearm suppressor. In certain examples, the firearm suppressor includes an outer cylinder defining a longitudinal axis, and an inner cylinder having an inner chamber, where the inner cylinder is disposed at least partially within the outer tube and defines an outer chamber with the outer cylinder, where the outer chamber is disposed between an inner surface of the outer cylinder and an outer surface of the inner cylinder. The suppressor also includes a reversing baffle disposed at one end of the inner cylinder and configured to reverse a flow of gasses from the inner chamber and direct the gasses into the outer chamber, and at least one reverse flow pathway comprising a reverse section and a forward section, and where the at least one reverse flow pathway fluidly couples the inner chamber with an end cap.

A muzzle end accessory for a firearm includes features to both suppress sounds and flashes associated with firing of the firearm. The features that provide sound and flash suppression may be formed, at least partially, in a core structure that is interior to the accessory and thus protected from damage by contact with external elements. The core structure may be of a unitary structure, promoting structural integrity and ease of manufacturing.
