I have an 870 about 15 or so years old. I've noticed the forend seems too loose. I can hold the receiver shake the gun and the forend will move back slightly. When shooting slugs or buck shot it's difficult to keep the forend forward. Is there a way of tightning this? I'm not super familiar with shotguns. I didn't find much when I searched.
