Yes the new barrel will have to be headspaced, there is no provision for the barrel pin so once headspace is done you will have to mill/drill the barrel pin groove on the barrel. For barrel removal referr to the BUILD IT YOURSELF section of this site. Personally i remove barrels with the pulley puller method, I've done 15 so far with that method, to install a barrel i beat them in with a hammer, with the receiver resting on a block of hardwood.
