I moved this thread over here after I realized I had posted in the wrong forum. My 460V will not let the hammer or trigger move all the way to the rear. I took it apart and all seems fine inside. The strain screw is tight. But there's a piece of metal that looks like it sits under the cylinder release latch that is causing the hammer and trigger to not move. Here's a pic of the piece. Thanks for any help.

That is the part that blocks the bolt from moving forward when (after) the gun is cocked. It rests in the fame slot behind and below the trigger, and cams off of the pin that is in the underside of the trigger. (cam pin in trigger sits in slot in bolt block. When the trigger is pulled back, the bolt block rises into position in front of the bolt.

The link shows the position of the bolt in place in the slot....

That'll do it..

The end of the hand pin engages the slot in the bolt block on the far side of the trigger. If the pin is under the block, rather than in the slot, the hammer won't go back all the way.

Thank you very much for the info and the pics. That was the problem. I put her back together and she works beautifully. Again thank you.
