Editing How to fix a loose forend on a Dominion Arms Outlaw

Many [[Dominion Arms Outlaw|Outlaw]] owners have reported loose forend rattle that some have patched by placing a cleaning patch between forend and barrels. This page shows a permanent fix using only a small piece of shelving bracket and a Dremel tool.
