I'm not a gunsmith or a machinist, but I think you would have to re-chamber the barrel in order to reduce the amount of play involved in the lockup between the bolt and e barrel extension. It can be done, but would involve, cutting the barrel back, re-chambering, and timing the gas port back to the 12 O'clock high position, just like sights on a rifle barrel. Probably not worth the expense.
