If you were to cut just behind the hole you drilled and re-threaded for a muzzle device, what length barrel would you have?

And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” ― George Orwell, 1984
Any disruption of the Crown will affect accuracy! Porting a barrel does not make it less accurate. Put the pin in and make sure its not into the rifling. it will straighten itself out. Make sure to weld the pin and grind down or polish afterwards. My guess is, it will be fine. if not , what did you lose by trying it.

Can you not SBR it in your state?

People port barrels all the time and don't have issues. Pin the flash hider in place and shoot it.
Simple SBR it or sell it to some one that will.
Having a hole near the crown of my expensive colt barreldoesn't make sense.
Cut it back and pin a KX3 on it, I know Rainier Arms stocks a 13.7 inch WOA barrel for this purpose. It's an idea.

FN does not make 1/9 barrels as far as I know. Not bashing on you, but this is why we send barrels to ADCO and other places. Last time I checked M4 barrels were about 400.00-425.00.
I think the best you can hope for is cutting it down and recrowning it. You may also need to do something with the gas port.
Since SBR's are legal in Kansas I would go that route. Or try and sell it and get a 16" barrel.
