How should I go about it? It’s nickel and gold plated.

Will it fit in your media tumbler where you polish your brass cases for reloading?

Edited to add: It probably won't fit as-is, but like most people in this situation you're free to cut 2 inches off the barrel. An angle grinder with a diamond tip cutting wheel should do the trick. (people do this all the time; a lot of stuff that needs to get polished won't fit in the tumbler bin.)
