shifter difficult to move to 7/R

Hey,

I was checking out a vette at the dealer and decided to run the shifter through the gears to see how she feels. First through six was fine. However when I moved it into the final pair of gears (7/R) it felt like the shifter hit a wall between the third and fourth column on the shifter. It went into those gears but it took noticeably more effort to engage those gears.

Is that normal? If so does it loosen up with use or get better when the engine is running? I can see that causing a lot of missed shifts for people going from 6 to 7th with how much more effort was required. Especially considering the typical age a corvette owner lol
