Run taps through it if that doesn't work get some silver or brass blobbed into it and recut and if all lese fails, new shell.
You may wish to not bother with option 2, I've done it on a couple of frames but it's harder than I thought to get the threads clean enough to make a nice job of it and it's going to fuck the paint so maybe not worth it. It was a frame of mine and one for someone else that I've done, mine is still going strong and I've had no complaints re the other one so even a half arsed, messy job seems to be enough.
