I've got an M&P 9 fullsize, and just ordered a suppressor for it.  I'm trying to figure out what my options are for a threaded barrel.  



I've heard there's a factory barrel that sells for around $175, but is always out of stock.  That and all the issues S&W has had with accuracy with this platform kinda steers me away from that.  Wilson Combat makes a match threaded barrel for $230 from their website.  Being Wilson I assume its GTG but haven't seen anyone say anything about it either way.  Are there any other options worth looking at?

The Gemtech is priced similar to the factory barrel.

Good catch.  That's what I get for not reading the description.

I put a StormLake in my full size, happy with it shooting both supressed and unsurpressed. I have a PC ported so it nice to have all the options now. picked it up local.

Ok, so my weak google-fu and replies here are telling me the only options are:



S&W factory barrel (not really an option)

Storm Lake

Wilson Combat




The SL and WC are almost identical in price.  I think I'll go with the Wilson.

I do.  love it.  Kkm barrels are top notch and routinely perform well in accuracy tests.

call them and they can get you a threaded barrel.

I bought a Storm Lake barrel for my Glock 21 and I've been extremely happy with it.  It's a very, very accurate barrel, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.  In fact, if I ever get to a point where I can afford a 9mm barrel for my M&P40, I'll almost certainly go with another Storm Lake.

I have no experience with KKM but I've never heard anything bad about them.

I have a threaded 40 to 9 KKM conversion barrel for my M&P.

I am very happy with it and can vouch for its high quality.
