Depends on the rifle. As long as the barrel is tight to the receiver, not a problem- it is the stock that is loose. Try tightening mounting screws with a GOOD screwdriver (to keep from bugering up the heads of the screws). You may have a stripped thread on a screw, or may need to add a shim between stock and barrel- try cutting strips out of a business card, and use them. If the gap is wider than that, you need to see a gunsmith.

If there is no maker's name on the rifle, it is likely a (former) military rifle. Without a full description of the rifle, and ALL markings on the rifle, there is no way that we can answer your question. Your best bet would be to take to rifle to a local gun dealer. Sorry-
