If you get a reputable barrel, you probably won't need a headspace gauge. They're already headspaced before they leave. We keep a set of go/no go's around but I rarely need to use them.
As to an armorer's wrench, honestly, most are going to be fine. A lot depends on what type of handguard you're putting on. We rarely need a full out armorer's wrench, just a torque wrench and a castle nut wrench but we do nearly all freefloats.
