Chambers are almost certainly too short. The gun will handle it, but you'll feel increased recoil and it's hard on the wrist area of the stock.
Lengthening the chambers is safe and easily accomplished by a competent smith. Value will be unaffected... Especially since the tubes have already been cut.
