Mossberg pump loose?

So today I disassembled my mossberg 500 for the first time and gave it a good cleaning in and out. It took me a sec to get the pump back on and into the receiver. well I eventually got it but just realized (or maybe I never noticed till now) that I can turn the pump..a little but enough for concern..

the best i can describe it is its like im turning the forearm along the mag tube. left and right.
is there a quick fix ? or is this normal? its not interrupting my cycle or anything.
 
All tight, not all right. Good and loose, good as a goose. Helps with reliability in whatever conditions. Get mud/dirt/sand in between the forend and the mag tube, who cares. Those loose tolerances are what make it such a reliable gun. This is why I carry a Glock as well. Even if all the haters say combat accurate isn't enough. :p
