PRESSURE REDUCER FOR A GUN MUZZLE
Pressure reducer for a gun muzzle, comprising a funnel (2) having an inner conical shape with increasing diameter from the gun muzzle, comprising a ring (3) consisting of at least two segments, preferably four segments, being arranged around and behind the bead (9) of the muzzle (1), two circular helical springs (4, 5) being arranged in grooves in the outer surface of the ring segments thereby clamping the segments to the funnel and allowing displacement of the unit comprising the funnel (2) and the segment ring (3) on to the muzzle (1) for installation and dismantling as well, whereby the diameter of the ring (3) being increased to enable displacement of the segment ring beyong the bead (9) of the muzzle (3), and a nut (6) having an aperture with a diameter larger than the bead (9) diameter to enable the nut to be arranged around the gun barrel beyong the bead (9) of the muzzle, which bead (9) thereby being clamped in between the funnel (2) and the nut (6) such that the reducer is releasably secured to the gun.
