Abstract
A modular noise suppressor for a firearm may have rearward and forward sections, and a front end cap. The rearward section may contain one or more baffles and can be configured to connect to the barrel of the firearm. The forward section can contain one or more baffles and may be connected to the rearward section. The front end cap can be connected to the forward section and provide a force to the baffles of the forward section. The connection between the rearward and forward sections can be in axial tension at least in response to the front end cap providing the force to the baffles of the forward section such that any loosening of the connection between the rearward and forward sections can be at least partially restricted in response to the axial tension.
