Default Sharps 45-70 problem

Anybody familiar with the Sharps 1874?
Last Friday,I went to the range and shot a grand total of 1 round.Opened up the action as usual,put on half cock,dropped the block,fed a new round and then,one of my friend talked to me.I again put on half cock and opened the action to get the round out.Chatted with him and when I again tried to open up the action,the lever would drop down but the block would only go halfway down with a definite feeling of metal against metal.
Tried to put it apart but the block wouldn't go out of its mortice.
Anybody can tell me what to do with this?
