What's a safe way to slightly bend the rail into shape?

My Switch unit has a slightly mis-shapen rail, in that the 'prongs' which hold onto the joycon, are uneven by just a hair. This allows the joycon to wiggle slightly when in handheld form. I'm not sure how sturdy the metal they use is, but I wanted to find a way that I could fix the rail, without having to send my unit in, and lose all my progress in my games.

"What I did for a friend’s switch was bend it into place with very small, pointy pliers while checking if the joycon still fits or if I overbent it.

You have to be careful though, the metal isn’t the best, just like any metal part in the Switch."
