If you do want to archive, you can do the search and label all the results with 
a unique tag. Then create another gmail account. Enable imap on both accounts 
and configure in tbird (probably want to disable indexing for search on and 
offline archiving on those accounts if you can. Then drag and drop from the 
archive label to the archive account. Wait. Then go to the original account and 
delete the threads in the archive label.
