Default loose ejector forearm

Was curious to see if there was a way to tighten up the forearm to the barrels, for me at least when the forearm is on the just the barrels it has some back and forth play to it. Any tips or tricks?

If you're saying the forend is loose on the barrels when the barrels are not attached to the gun.... that is very common, even 'normal'.

There is some wiggle when the gun is together, but really noticeable when just on the barrels, the latter is good to know, the first part not so much

How the fit is on the barrel set alone means nothing.

If it is loose on the gun when assembled, then likely the forend loop needs some work.

Or it needs a shim on the roll joint...or both.
