Gemtech Smith & Wesson M&P Compact 22 Adapter and Wrench – 3/8x24 to 1/2x28
Convert your factory threads and run a suppressor with confidence. The Gemtech Smith & Wesson M&P Compact 22 Adapter transforms the factory 3/8x24 barrel threads into the U.S. standard 1/2x28, giving you suppressor compatibility without hassle. This kit includes a precision-machined steel adapter, a thread protector, and the necessary wrench for easy installation and removal.
Product Overview
The M&P Compact 22 is a popular rimfire pistol, but its stock thread pitch doesn’t match most American .22LR suppressors. The Gemtech adapter bridges the gap by converting threads to 1/2x28 TPI—the industry standard.
Machined from hardened steel and finished in matte black, the adapter ensures proper suppressor alignment while protecting your factory threads. The included wrench allows you to remove the original barrel nut and install the adapter quickly, making it a true plug-and-play upgrade.
