With the right tools the barrel take off is real easy, unless some on put it on with no grease and used a 4ft breaker bar to set the barrel nut.

FSB never removed one, but you can find tons of info where they were impossible to than can out with a few wacks of a hammer.

You need an action block and a barrel wrench. Check the procedure here:
