I picked this Traditions 44 cal. Navy Colt up at a garage sale. Must have been fired and stored without proper cleaning. The hammer was stuck closed for starters. After much lubricant, carburetor cleaner and body language I got the barrel off and some movement in the hammer. The trigger won't move and I can't get the cylinder off. I keep adding cleaner, oil, etc and wiggling. I have tapped on the cylinder and tried gently prying between cylider and frame (careful to avoid the nipples).
Any ideas how to proceed next? I attached a photo but very new to this forum so not sure if photo is viewable.
