I'm new to the hobby and wanted to know if anyone knows if you can get a threaded barrel for an M&P .45 4". It's the full size 10 rnd. Not the compact 8 rnd (Hope I got that right, dont know if it matters). Thanks

I recently bought a Wilson Combat Match Grade threaded barrel for my M&P 9mm from Brownells and I think it's more accurate than the original barrel. It was $229, $30 less than Midway, and I usually buy from Midway. Here is the barrel info, 965-000-213WB, Match Grade Barrel, 9mm, S&W M&P, Threaded 1/2-2.
 
Thanks, I checked KKM. They do not make .45 barrels. Thats the problem I am running into. Stormlake does but it gets confusing with the Barrel lengths, mine being a 4" it seems that those would be to long.

It's the full size

OK, lets walk through this and see if it helps.
You said you have a full-sized M&P .45 ACP, correct?
If so, then your barrel is 4.5", per the S&W website.
The threaded barrel for the full-size M&P .45 is Stormlake #34123, Manufacturers Ref: SW-MP-45ACP-530-05T-T.
It is 5.3" long and threaded for a suppressor. Thus without the suppressor, it will stick out about an inch. This is normal because the barrel length is determined by suppressor interface specs. A screw on thread protector is available when you shoot it without the suppressor.
List Price is $232.00 in stainless finish.

So if you want a barrel to install a suppressor on a full size M&P .45, Stormlake sells them.

Now, if you actually have a COMPACT M&P .45, the answer is NO, Stormlake does not make a threaded barrel for the compact.

S&W makes a mid-size M&P .45 which is a compact slide and full-size grip. As you said, StormLake makes a barrel for the full-size. I don't know of any for the compact or mid-size.
 
Thanks for clearing it up for me V0OBWxZS16. You are right. I have a midsize. I didn't realize the slide was compact. So thus I would have to look for a compact size barrel. Guess that goes back to being a newbie. Thanks again. Will maybe look for a compact size.
