Ruger MkIV 22/45 Lite hammer

[rootytootyshooty]

So, I've completely bungled my reassembly of this gun. Got to the last step, but the hammer cocks weirdly and won't fire when pulled. Bolt will not move back more than a mm.

Anybody with experience willing to take a look?

Whatever you do.... do NOT force anything. Check out youtube, if not find a friend or gunsmith.

Sounds like the hammer strut isn’t in the mainspring cap seat. Or the thumb safety and sear are not interfaced correctly.
