Help requested with an H&R sportsman revolver

This is an old H&R 22 cal revolver. The lever behind the triggers seems to prevent the hammer from being pulled back

Can someone help diagnose the problem or explain the function of this device ?


Thanks in advance

I have a 999. Not sure what "lever behind the trigger" you're referring to. What COULD be causing an inability to cock the hammer is a broken mainspring guide bracket (part 39 in the diagram linked in prior response). The original ones are plastic and become brittle, and commonly break, and the broken parts can jam up the hammer mainspring. happened to me. luckily it's an easy and cheap repair with the metal replacement part from Numrich.
