Once you've shot out a barrel there really isn't much use for it.
Here's an idea from the USAMU Custom Firearms Shop. These make nice handouts - gifts - keepsakes for the cost of your gunsmith - machinists' time.
The machinist cuts the barrel into coin-thick pieces, polishes them, then laser engraves front and back. Somebody does you a favor? Does a great job? Has a nice achievement worthy of on-the-spot recognition? Hand him one of these tokens as an "Attaboy" or "Thank you."
