There's only a couple of outlets in the UK that sell Hardy suppressors (Riflecraft are one) but they can be a bit pricey.
Your problem stems from the fact that in the UK, the vast majority of rifle barrels are threaded 1/2" x 20 UNF as standard and the suppressors sold in the country are threaded to suit, whereas the 15-22 barrel is threaded from the factory at 1/2" x 28 UNF.
If you don't want to go to the expense of a Hardy unit (and don't forget you'll have to buy it 'face to face' which means a road trip to the shop or an RFD transfer), you can either get the barrel shortened and re-threaded to suit UK suppressors or you can buy a 'thread changer' adapter to convert the thread pattern (ebay sell them).
Hope this helps.
