I'm guessing this Victory is one that has the hammer block safety installed. It usually falls out when you remove the side plate. It must be sitting correctly to get the side plate to go back on. There is a groove in the side plate that the hammer block must ride in. Install the hammer block so the bottom "loop" rides over the stud on the trigger rebound slide and slide the hammer block towards the rear. Then set the side plate so the "groove" slides over the hammer block and slip it into place. Press it into place, sometimes a tap with a rubber hammer handle may be necessary, but do not force.
