            If you reassembled the gun correctly then it is likely that it wiggled before but being a TRP, it really shouldn't.

            Pics?

                I think you may have put the slide release in without passing it through the barrel link.
                Lord, make my hand fast and accurate.
                Let my aim be true and my hand faster
                than those who would seek to destroy me.
                Grant me victory over my foes and those who wish to do harm to me and mine.
                Let not my last thought be 'If I only had my gun."
                And Lord, if today is truly the day you call me home, let me die in an empty pile of brass.

                  it only wiggles when the slide is locked back, is that normal?

                        LOL! When the slide is locked the gun is out of battery and the wiggles are required for proper function. When slide is forward and you have a barrel that wiggles it means the lock up is sloppy and not at the level your TRP should be.
