I acquired an H&R 949 in .22 LR today, and after getting it home I tried to test fire it. It would not fire. The action cycles correctly, but it seems the hammer is not dropping with sufficient force to activate the primer. In fact, upon examining the rounds in the cylinder, none have much of a dent at all in them. It's a single/double action, born in 1968.
I'd appreciate any kind of troubleshooting advice to help me narrow down what the problem might be. I'm thinking some sort of spring...but who knows. I can source most of the needed parts from Numrich, but need assistance identifying which part(s) to order. Your collective assistance is appreciated!
