First of all, address any concerns you have with the manufacturer. Who else will know better?
You could check with Mark at TROSUSA.com to see if he can make the adaptor you want. It is not on his list though.
Gemtech website does have a 1/2x28 to 5/8x24 adaptor listed for $60.00.

yea thats what he said to me but he said it would work on the wsm. an yea i told him a ar-15 but he said that the 223 . could mess it up which is very hard to believe.. but he said it was 308 full auto ready. so the heat should not matter.. i think im goin to order the adpater an try it with some sub ammo 1st an run 30rds of normal 223 an check it

I don't think you will hurt it with 223 ammo if reasonable care is taken. Heat is a suppressor's worst enemy.
As far as support from Coastal, I know they had a shop in with Speed Shooter Specialties, a well known S&W race parts maker. maybe they are trying to answer your questions and just don't know enough about it.
Coastal cans, to me, seemed way over built. And very heavy!
