An apparatus has lately been in.

a steel tube made In compartments

the caliber Of the firearm. This tube
is fixed In front of the muzzle of the
gun by bayonet clasp at the moment
of firing. At other times 1t 20 de

II operates as follows: While the
proiectile is engaged in the piece the
gases from the powder spread in front
Of the muzzle and are arrested by the
first partition. As the projectile passes
along the bore the gas is arrested in
the same way and when the bullet
leaves the piece there is so little gas
remaining that there is no flame pro-
duced by its combustion, The gases.
momentarily stopped by the partitions,
escape successfully and quietly with.

tube weighs 700 grams, is 10 centime-
tres in length and can be armed with
a knife at the end so as to serve as a
bayonet. II is fully described In
