I suggest you keep it as is and disclose the thin walls to any potential buyer (which you already have). That is one beautiful gun! My goodness, how many rounds has it digested in its long life that were probably a heck of a lot hotter than what you've been feeding it.

Remember, WW Greener once had one of his barrels thinned to .010 near the muzzle and then shot proof loads through it with no ill effect. Then he used a pen knife to slit the tubes to show bystanders.
