The MOE barrel is also threaded and has a suppresor on it.

Product: Model M&P15-22 MOE Rifle - Magpul® Sights, Stock and Grip

The barrels are the same. The only factory 15-22's with different barrels on them are the compliant models and the performance model. The compliant models don't have threaded barrels or flash suppressors, and the performance models have a longer barrel(fluted) and a match chamber.
