Adding a new receiver/barrel to a shooter

Oops I forgot about long and short receivers! I bought the 6" barrel ages ago so hope it's for the short receiver since my P.08 has the short frame and receiver. Guess I need to find out how long the barrel threads are for each type of receiver before I pursue this further...

So I guess if my barrel works with the short receiver, I should be able to buy that type receiver, have the barrel installed (and ejector and front sight) and then interchange the 4" and 6" top sides.
