Another Long Distance Troubleshooting Request

Shooting my Colt New Service last night--originally .455 Eley but recut to .45ACP--shot a couple cylinders without issue and then it locked up after the first shot on one cylinder. The hammer will not draw all the way back in either DA or SA. The cylinder latch will not pull back far enough to release the cylinder. Pulling the hammer back far enough to drop the bolt, shows the cylinder is free to rotate. The pistol still has 5 live rounds in it and I am a bit on the nervous side here.
Suggestions or ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
