Innovative, creative, and 'longest' suppressor in a short can
via new physics principle.
Paulson's "Silencer ..History and Performance Vol. 22, P202, discusses the Helical Free-Flow
Suppressor design. For those who are new to this board the story of Greg Latka
and his innovative 'longest suppressor in a short tube' technology
is worth learning about.
Excerpt from Latka Patent: "..A baffle for a weapon silencer includes an annular wall that defines an axial passageway.
The annular wall defines a first section located adjacent to a first axial end and in which
the diameter of the axial passageway increases from a smallest diameter adjacent
to the first axial end to a largest diameter. The annular wall defines a second section
having a spiraled vane is formed on an exterior surface of the annular wall.
The annular wall defines a third section that is located adjacent to the second axial end,
the third section having a plurality of ports that extend radially through the annular wall to allow communication between the axial passageway and an exterior."
OSS has a flow through design also.

Addendum: In the future some creative member may design a helical 'basket' for wrapping
say K-Baffles to space them away from the tube wall and emulate variations of
the flow through concept.
