I'm new to the Cadets but there seems to be a number of knowlageble people here with them. I've only put 200 rounds through mine but I love these little rifles already. My uncle shot mine and lived it so much he had me hunt one down for him, which leads me to my question. I noticed on his, when the rifle is decocked, there is zero movement of the breech block. On mine however, when the rifle is decocked and I hold the rifle upside down, there is vertical play in the block. There is none while it's cocked it locks up nice and tight but one the trigger is pulled the breech block can rise by about .02" give or take a little. Is this normal on these rifles or is mine kinda worn out?

Totally normal, nothing to worry about.
