I know the hammer has to be cocked, and you might have to pull down on the hammer a little. I don't have mine handy to check it out, but it ain't no thang to reassemble it. Basically pull the slide back until it drops down on the frame, IIRC.

See if you aren't doing it quite right. If it doesnt work as explained, call them.
