I have fixed a loose forend in the past by having a drop of metal TIG welded on the tip of the J spring, then filing it down until it snapped on snugly. I clamped the spring between two blocks of aluminum to act as a heat sink, and didn't harm the spring. It didn't take many thousandths to tighten the spring up, maybe 0.020" at the most.
