Hammer not locking back--HELP

[T1gger 3]

Just finished the conversion, charged the gun and the hammer is not locking into the hook, it's just coming back up with the handle. Here's a really cruddy pic of the Trigger group in. Please help fellas.

Where's the hammer? The most common mistake first time builders make is to put it in backward. I can't say this is the problem since there is no image of it in the receiver. Also, did you install the disconnector spring?

 

Can you post another pic with more detail?

He's right. The hammer must be in upside down. Happened to me too.

I think everything's in correct. I can push the hammer into the hook and it'll lock. But it looks like the bolt. 's not pushing it down far enough to hook when it's racked.

It's upside down.

I actually just made it to BR and the rifle is with my dad. I'm trying to get him to take another picture, but he's pretty computer illiterate.

I didn't modify the trigger group.

My dad just called, him and his friend looked at it and the hammer was indeed backwards, so they fixed it. I want to thank everybody on this site. Without the cool people and help there's no way I would have been able to get this done, much less have it done in a few hours. Thanks fellas.
