That was the idea, sir.
The problem was that in order to remove the sideplate, I tapped on the frame with a rubber mallet. The tapping probably loosened the trigger assembly just enough that it jammed the action.
All it was needed to free it was to push the trigger back against the frame.
I didn't know that at the time... now I do.
