I replaced the cylinder lock, hand assembly and hammer spring on my 1851 Navy Colt. I am brand new to cap and ball shooting and the replica revolver I have needed new pieces.
After putting it back together, the trigger does not release the hammer at full cock. I can hear the hammer click into half and full cock position, but the hammer goes back to the half cock position, and does not stay in a full cock position.
When I pull the trigger nothing happens, as it is in half cock position. If I pull the hammer back manually and release the trigger it releases all the way.
Does anyone have information on what I may have done wrong?
Thanks!
