Barrel pin walked out some after first hundred rounds

Built this old girl and finally got some ammo for it shot 100 rounds and it did great, but later noticed the barrel pin had walk itself out a little bit.

I did use a polish barrel I got awhile back from Arms of America so it was already cut for the pin, i also used a 3mm drill bit to clean the hole.

The barrel pin went in with just a few tabs, but seemed to be snug.

Y’all got any recommendations on what to do about it?

Some reassurance before I pin the barrel

The barrel looks like it’s a little to the right but the bolt does line up with the feeding ramps.
Will that affect anything? Or is it good to go.

Also the hole for the barrel pin looks like it has a metal burr, could that be from the barrel not being perfectly center.

Any feedback would be appreciated thanks.

Is there anyway I can repair this panel, the tabs that hold this strip broke.
