TM M870 outer barrel wobble

[gzuk1984]

Hi guys I have one of these rifles brand new and ive just noticed the outer barrel has a slight wobble to it if I place the gun on the floor stock down and shake it a little? Does anyone else have one of these rifles to confirm if this is normal or if something has come loose?? I have to put pressure on it to do this mind its not like it major loose?

Re: TM M870 outer barrel wobble

minor necropost I know but...
after removing the mag tube 2 screws will be exposed which hold the outer barrel on, give them a good screwing and that should fix you wobble issues.
not a major issue (unless the power of OCD compels you)

EXTREME necropost i know, buy my 870 is wibbly-wobbly aswell. Do you have any tips on how to remove the mag tube so i can fix my wobbly barrel too?

Besides tightening the mounting screws for the barrel, i have found shimming the space between the outer barrel and hopup chamber has helped greatly.
