The LPM Torch was designed to provide extreme holistic signature reduction for both operators and bystanders on gas-operated firearms. This requires minimal gas blowback and sound to the shooter while maintaining a high level of muzzle sound suppression. Solid and vented end caps are included to allow for changing the bias of muzzle to ear sound suppression depending on the host weapon and user needs. The innovative nested blast baffle design increases strength, reduces baffle erosion on short barrels, and minimizes the silencer's effect on weapon function.
