"can"-type suppressors (so-called as they often resemble a <a

by the user and attached to a different firearm. Another type is the "integral"
suppressor, which typically consists of an expansion chamber or chambers
surrounding the barrel. The barrel has openings or "ports" which bleed off gases
into the chambers. This type of suppressor is part of the firearm (thus the term
"integral"), and maintenance of the suppressor requires that the firearm be at
least partially disassembled.<sup id="cite_ref-Heard2011_15-0" class="reference"><a

<p>Both types of suppressors reduce noise by allowing the rapidly expanding gases
from the firing of the cartridge to be decelerated and cooled through a series of
hollow chambers. The trapped gas exits the suppressor over a longer period of time
and at a greatly reduced velocity, producing less noise signature. The chambers are
divided by either <i><a href="/wiki/Sound_baffle" title="Sound
baffle">baffles</a></i> or <i>wipes</i>. There are typically at least four and up
to perhaps fifteen chambers in a suppressor, depending on the intended use and
design details. Often, a single, larger expansion chamber is located at the muzzle
end of a can-type suppressor, which allows the propellant gas to expand
considerably and slow down before it encounters the baffles or wipes. This larger
chamber may be "reflexed" toward the rear of the barrel to minimize the overall
length of the combined firearm and suppressor, especially with longer weapons such
as rifles.</p>
<p>Suppressors vary greatly in size and efficiency. One disposable type developed
in the 1980s by the U.S. Navy for <a href="/wiki/9%C3%9719mm" class="mw-redirect"
title="9×19mm">9×19mm</a> pistols was 150&#160;mm (5.9&#160;in) long and 45&#160;mm
(1.8&#160;in) in outside diameter, and was designed for six shots with standard
ammunition or up to thirty shots with <a href="/wiki/Speed_of_sound" title="Speed
of sound">subsonic</a> (slower than the speed of sound) <a href="/wiki/Ammunition"
title="Ammunition">ammunition</a>. In contrast, one suppressor designed for rifles
firing the powerful <a href="/wiki/.50_BMG" title=".50 BMG">.50 caliber (BMG)</a>
cartridge is 509&#160;mm (20.0&#160;in) long and 76&#160;mm (3.0&#160;in) in
diameter.<sup id="cite_ref-Barrett_16-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-
Barrett-16">[16]</a></sup></p>
<p>Two ancillary advantages to the suppressor are recoil reduction and flash
suppression. Muzzle flash is reduced by both being contained in the suppressor and
through the arresting of unburned powder that would normally burn in the air,
adding to the flash. Recoil reduction results from the slowing of propellant
gasses, which can contribute 30–50% of recoil velocity. However, some suppressors
can increase the backpressure produced by the propellant gasses. This can cause
them to function somewhat like a <a href="/wiki/Muzzle_booster" title="Muzzle
booster">Muzzle booster</a> and thus increase the felt recoil. The weight of
suppressor and the location of that additional weight at the muzzle reduce recoil
through basic mass as well as muzzle flip due to the location of this mass.</p>

<p><a href="/wiki/Sound_baffle" title="Sound baffle">Baffles</a> are usually
circular metal dividers which separate the expansion chambers. Each baffle has a
hole in its center to permit the passage of the bullet through the suppressor and
toward the target. The hole is typically at least 1&#160;mm larger than the bullet
caliber to minimize the risk of the bullet hitting the baffle in what is known as a
"baffle strike". Baffles are typically made of <a href="/wiki/Stainless_steel"

<p>In addition to containing and slowly releasing the gas pressure associated with
muzzle blast or reducing pressure through the use of coolant mediums, advanced
suppressor designs attempt to modify the properties of the sound waves generated by
the muzzle blast. In these designs, effects known as frequency shifting and <a
href="/wiki/Interference_(wave_propagation)" title="Interference (wave
propagation)">phase cancellation</a> (or destructive interference) are used in an
attempt to make the suppressor quieter. These effects are achieved by separating
the flow of gases and causing them to collide with each other or by venting them
through precision-made holes. The intended effect of frequency shifting is to shift
audible sound waves frequencies into <a href="/wiki/Ultrasound"
title="Ultrasound">ultrasound</a> (above 20 <a href="/wiki/Hertz"
title="Hertz">kHz</a>), beyond the range of human hearing. The Russian <a
href="/wiki/AN-94" title="AN-94">AN-94</a> assault rifle features a muzzle
attachment that claims apparent noise reduction by venting some gases through a
"dog-whistle" type channel. Phase cancellation occurs when similar sound waves
encounter each other 180° out of phase, cancelling the amplitude of the wave and
eliminating the pressure variations perceived as sound.</p>
<p>Using either property to advantage requires that the suppressor be designed
within the specification of the muzzle blast in mind. For example, the velocity of
the sound waves is a major factor. This figure can change significantly between
different cartridges and barrel lengths.</p>
<p>However, these concepts are controversial because muzzle blast creates <a
href="/wiki/White_noise" title="White noise">broadband noise</a> rather than <a
href="/wiki/Pure_tone" class="mw-redirect" title="Pure tone">pure tones</a>, and
phase cancellation in particular is therefore extremely difficult (if not
impossible) to achieve. Some suppressor manufacturers claim to use phase
cancellation in their designs.<sup id="cite_ref-WebbDoherty2010_25-0"

<p>From the practical perspective, <a href="/wiki/Supersonic" class="mw-redirect"
title="Supersonic">supersonic</a> cartridge loads are impractical to suppress past
the levels that are merely hearing-safe for the shooter due to the sonic boom

fires up to a 250 grains (16&#160;g), .30 caliber bullet at about 980 feet per

title="Impulse noise (audio)">impulsive noise</a>, which has led most U.S.
manufacturers to advertise sub-140&#160;dB suppressors as "hearing safe". Current
OSHA standards would allow no more than sub-single-second exposure to impact noise
over 130&#160;dB per 24 hours. That would equate to a single .308 round fired
through a very efficient suppressor. This result effectively requires all users of
suppressors to wear additional ear protection.</p>
<p>Decibel testing measures only the peak sound "pressure" noise, not duration or
frequency. Limitations of dB testing become apparent in a comparison of sound
between a <a href="/wiki/.308_Winchester" title=".308 Winchester">.308 caliber</a>

produce the same decibel level of noise. Upon firing these rifles, however, it is
clear that the .300 Winchester Magnum sounds much louder. What a dB meter does not
show is that, although both rifles produce the same peak sound pressure level
(SPL), the .300 Winchester Magnum holds its peak duration longer—meaning that the .
300 Winchester Magnum sound remains at full value longer, while the .308 peaks and
falls off more quickly. Decibel meters fail in this and other regards when being
used as the principal means to determine suppressor capability. In a physical
sense, dB meters essentially take a short-time average (RMS intensity of a sonic
signal or impulse) over a specified period of time (sampling rate), and do not take
into account the rate of increase of the sound wave packet (first derivative of
packet envelope), which would in practice provide a better sense of the human
perception of sound.<sup id="cite_ref-AWC_47-0" class="reference"><a

"good cause" requirement exists for suppressors for these firearms. This
requirement is handled very varyingly across the States of Germany. The State of <a
href="/wiki/Bavaria" title="Bavaria">Bavaria</a> accepts the possession of a valid
hunter's license as "good cause" to own an unlimited number of suppressors, while
<a href="/wiki/North_Rhine-Westphalia" title="North Rhine-Westphalia">North Rhine-
Westphalia</a> does not accept hunting as a "good cause" at all. <a
href="/wiki/Baden-W%C3%BCrttemberg" title="Baden-Württemberg">Baden-Württemberg</a>
accepts "active exercise of hunting" as "good cause", but only allows the purchase
of one suppressor. <sup id="cite_ref-Suppressor_use_while_Hunting_in_Germany_55-0"

<li>In the <a href="/wiki/Czech_Republic" title="Czech Republic">Czech
Republic</a>, a suppressor is considered a prohibited firearms accessory, and as
