What are the common problems with the Ruger American Rimfire?

Can you swap barrels on a Ruger American?

Both Generation 1 and Generation 2 actions accept these barrels. A barrel wrench and headspace gauges are needed for installation.
What is the difference between the Ruger American gen 1 and gen 2?
Gen 2 updates include a redesigned molded grip replacing angular grooves, improved forend ergonomics, bolt and receiver milling changes, better stock quality, and a refined trigger. The action feels smoother. Both generations are mechanically similar, but parts do not fully interchange — some components require modification to fit between generations.
