Description
The Banish P22/M&P22 thread adapter is purpose-built for rimfire owners who want quick access to the 1/2-28 accessory ecosystem. If you run a Walther P22 or S&W M&P22, you're working with M8x0.75 metric threads from the factory, which limits your options for cans and compensators. This adapter bridges that gap without any gunsmithing.
How the M8x0.75 to 1/2-28 conversion works
The adapter threads onto your pistol's barrel in place of the standard barrel nut. Once installed, you have a standard 1/2-28 male thread extending out past the slide, ready for any 1/2-28 threaded device. The conversion happens in one simple part, manufactured on a precision CNC turning center to hold tight tolerances and maintain perfect concentricity with your barrel.
Build quality and finishes
Banish machines this adapter from quality steel and applies a black oxide finish that resists corrosion and wear. The black oxide coating holds up under repeated removal and installation cycles, which matters if you're swapping between a can and other accessories. The short guide profile keeps the footprint compact so it doesn't dramatically change the look of your pistol.
What makes this practical for the range
Once threaded on, you can run any 1/2-28 suppressor or muzzle device without worrying about availability or hunting down metric adapters. This opens up your options for quieter shooting, compensators, thread protectors, and other aftermarket gear. The adapter installs and removes with a basic wrench using the flat edges machined into the body. It's straightforward gear that works when you need it to.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this adapter work with both the Walther P22 and S&W M&P22?
Yes, this adapter is designed to fit both platforms since they share the same M8x0.75 barrel thread. It replaces the factory barrel nut on either pistol and gives you 1/2-28 compatibility. Just verify your specific M&P22 model isn't the compact variant, which has different specs.
Do I need special tools to install this thread adapter?
No. The adapter has flat edges machined into the body that let you grip it with a basic wrench for tightening and removal. You'll use the same wrench supplied with the pistol to remove the factory barrel nut, then swap in the Banish adapter. No gunsmithing or special fixtures required.
What 1/2-28 suppressors and accessories will this work with?
Once installed, this adapter accepts any suppressor or muzzle device threaded 1/2-28, which is the standard for rimfire and 9mm in the US market. That includes most commercial cans, compensators, thread protectors, and other 1/2-28 accessories from major manufacturers.
How does the black oxide finish hold up with repeated use?
Black oxide is durable and corrosion-resistant, but like any finish, it can wear over time with constant removal and installation. The finish on this adapter should last through normal use. Regular inspection is good practice, and you can touch up worn spots with gun bluing if needed down the road.
