Determining barrel looseness

Hi
I am fooling with an old VH, I can slip a .004 feeler gauge between the barrel and receiver.
The gun seems tight to me.
Is .004 tolerable or close to normal, or is this considered loose and in need of tightening up ?
I have no reference to compare, this would be my first Parker.

Thanks for any advice, Tom
