One of those would work..... a bit over $400 MSRP (but can be found cheaper), but meets all your other specs.

With .22 pistols I think you have basically two choices unless you want to spend a ton of money - a Browning Buckmark or a Ruger.  I've owned both and I liked the Buckmark a lot more, but I believe the Ruger suppresses better because the slide isn't open on both sides like the Browning. 

From everything I've read, most of the other .22 autos on the market just aren't as reliable as these two.  There are some exceptions (I hear the CZ .22 Kadet adaptor is excellent) but in general you won't go wrong with either of these.

Forgot about the buckmark, I held one at scheels and it felt like it was meant for me. I may have to look into that...

I have the
 Ruger mkIII,
Ruger mkII,
Ruger 22/45
 Caspian 1911 with the latest marvel conversion,
Walther p22
Smith m&p 22
CZ75b kadet

Out of these I prefer the Ruger 22/45 and MKIII.  I like the MKIII metal frame better than the 22/45 and the mkIII mag release is much nicer than the MKII.  The cz kadet is nice too but probably out of your budget if you dont already have a cz75(harder to suppress and the slide on the kadet is kind of hard to grab). http://www.cz-usa.com/products/view/cz-75-kadet-adapter/
 The newest marvel conversion for 1911s(the newest one will lock the slide back on the last shot) is nice if you have a 1911 to convert.  You can switch out the top for sights or red dot rail. http://www.tacticalsol.com/tshome/2211-1911-22lr-conversion
Also they have a glock conversion and upgrades for ruger and browning http://www.tacticalsol.com/tshome/tsg-22-conversion-for-glock-pistols
The smith and wesson M&P is nice and 12 rds and I think I could use the adapter from my walther p22 to put my suppressor on but havent yet.

AJ_Engineer:
I have a Ruger 22/45 threaded barrel version. It is quite nice with a SilencerCo Sparrow on the end.

Have had zero problems with it, except when I dis-assembled it when I first bought it. They can be tricky to re-assemble until they've been shot a few times.
