Lol.The upper receiver is basically just garbage. Ruger torques the bejesus out of them and good luck getting a barrel out without destroying the receiver. I dont even bother. Slice right across the top with a pencil wheel and smack it with a cold chisel to break the receiver . Heat it with a torch to melt the Loctite and unscrew the barrel. A barrel for $7 is a freakin' bargain. Those can be made to fit any Mark Ruger but its certainly no drop in. .Good solid 4 minutes with of machine work involved.

My old neighbor was a gifted fabricator .
His labor took minutes too, but he counted them as billable hours.
