To put threads on a barrel seems like it would be fairly easy. I wonder about the process of would it need to be refinished too after the threading is done.

Since you are considering this for appearance reasons, I suppose it could be done, it would have to be done by a gunsmith or machinist on a lathe as a die wouldn't work. You could also have it refinished, but in the end it would probably be costlier than buying a threaded barrel. Barrel lockup might also be affected, but that's just a guess on my part.
