Abstract
A sound suppressor for a firearm, such as a shotgun, may include a rear end cap, a plurality of baffle units and a front end cap that are configured to be assembled in an end-to-end arrangement. These elements may be secured to one another with one or more elongated coupling elements that extend through the end-to-end arrangement, along with one or more complementary securing elements. Such a sound suppressor may lack an outer housing. A plurality of guide rods may extend through an interior of such a sound suppressor in a manner that provides the framework for a passage for a projectile as it moves through the sound suppressor. A barrel coupling element that may be used with a sound suppressor is also disclosed, as are methods for tailoring the length of a sound suppressor and for customizing the types and arrangement of baffles used in the sound suppressor.
