Just bought M&M 22 Compact with the threaded barrel. It came
with the adapter and a thread protector for the ADAPTER. It did
not come with a thread protector for the BARREL.
The book says (and you can plainly see) not to fire the pistol
with the adapter removed. I want to put a BARREL thread protector on
it and use it without the adapter.
EWK ARMS makes the barrel protector and a "Recoil Guide Spring
Centering Bushing". It looks to me that the barrel thread protector would probably be OK, but for under $10 the centering
bushing would make sense. Has anyone done this or have any
thoughts about it? Thank You.
