Would like to change my RRA upper's barrel. I have a heavy under the handguard M4 barrel non chrome lined. Want to put a chrome line government profile barrel to reduce weight. What tools do I need or would I be better off just sending it to a shop for replacment?

Thanks,
HS

Big vise and a big vise grips should do it.

I use a DPMS armorer's wrench and the receiver block from Brownells.

Also need a 1/16" punch and small ball peen hammer  for the gas tube roll pin.
