Why does the barrel need to be replaced?
Unless you have another Universal made barrel, you will need to have a USGI barrel machined in a few places as well as some receiver work. Universals I just checked are going for $350 on GB, a lil higher on AA. Machining and gun smithing fees will run you about $125 + the cost of the newer barrel. barrel relining would cost about $90 plus the liner (liners are easy enough to find, about $40). The liner needs two nothes cut into the chamber side and needs to be cut/crowned to length.
If you already have a new universal barrel, the job is fairly easy, they are not built like USGI. They are threaded (loosly) and pinned, you do not even need a barrel/receiver vise. They do not require any set back machining but you may need to use .0005 -.001 shims until you have a TDC barrel and then drill the new pin space on the topside of the barrel through the reciver band hole and place the pin in. The only thing you may have to do is alter/polish the ramp and throat. Smith fees for this would be about $75 + misc parts if you already have the barrel.
