First round pop is caused when the superheated carbon monoxide and the unburned particulates in the combustion gas combine with the oxygen in the suppressor to cause a secondary combustion in the suppressor itself. After several shots have been fired, most of the oxygen has been used up and the shots get quieter due to less of this secondary combustion. There are several ways to avoid or reduce FRP. One of the most common is to use a coolant in the suppressor (water, oil or grease) that vaporize with each shot and cool the combustion gases below their flash point. Another way is to remove all the oxygen from the suppressor before firing the shot by injecting non-combustion supporting gas into the suppressor e.g. CO2, or a third way is to design the baffles etc. to either cool the gas or contain the secondary combustion sound. Some suppressors are much better at containing the FRP than others.
