First date...and I broke her.....

So should I spend more money to have it rethreaded

Yes, Brian Dick can do that I'm sure.

Acquiring/fitting an original L1A1/SLR barrel will not be cheap

Just thread the front...no need to change it.

See your PMs...

The barrel assembly is suspect, IMO. It looks like a “metric” profile barrel with an “inch” (British in this case) gas block installed so I’m wondering what the gas port looks like. The way the previous owner attached the modified junk muzzle device is absurd so I’m also wondering what else they did to the rifle...
