I can not remember how it fit in a Marlin, how loose is loose?
My 94 is loose so it has no pressure point on the barrel.

If just a minute amopunt of play, I seldom worry, as long as appropriate screws & pins are where they're supposed to be an' snug. Not Goliath tight, just snug! :lol:

The back end of the tube in my 1894 Marlin CB is loose but it works and feeds so I think I will leave it alone. I tighten the fornt and it shoots fine.
