The Proflex coupling you cite is the only one
I would use for copper-to-copper. They work.
You probably need a wider net to find them on-shelf.
Dust off a big city phone book and call plumbing
supply houses. Or maybe ask at a neighborhood hardware store
(do they exist?) for a friendly supply house.
