My first thought, too. Those long slots with the tapered, pointed ends are notorious stress points even on the early forged Belgians. all that high pressure gas ( That really OUGHT to be used to propel the dang boolit  ) sure can't be helping.
As bykerhd mentioned, I'd see if moses can whip you up a long version of his "Hurricane" open slot - voila', permanent solution.
Not to flame ya, but I could never figure out chopping a barrel back to 12 0r 13 inches, lose so much ballistics, then put another 3 or 4 inches of FH back on it so's the batboys are happy and your muzzle signature is probably not all that much better than a nekkid 16 inch would have been in the first place. JMHO, though, and if you like 'em that way, that's still cool
