Concerning a Sharps Borchardt switch-barrel..what is the procedure for removing barrel?  Does breech block need to be removed.  If case heads are the same size, does this simplify things (no need to change out extractor).

The extractor may not come back far enough to clear the barrel. Most likely the breach block and extractor will need to be removed.
