Keep the cylinder with the gun. If you don't use it, it's not hurting anything. As Malamute said those cylinders are fitted to each gun. They may or may not fit another gun. Not to mention the fact that your gun is a convertible model. If you sell the cylinder you will be reducing it's resale value...

Gas checks? Yes, they would help to prevent leading, but if your bullets do not have the recess on the base to allow seating them securely you won't be able to attach them.
