Use the block of wood method described in step #1 to move the hammer forward. Troubleshooting Page Don't be shy about striking the muzzle down onto the block of wood you're moving the hammer by the intertia of the hit. Once you move the hammer, remove the magazine, open the latch and swing out the mainspring assembly.
