Your pistol is out of battery. Likely the toggle hook to attach to the mainspring is not hooked properly.

You are actually lucky..this is not an Artillery. Someone put a FUBAR Artillery barrel on it..but it doesn't belong to this pistol. Well..with the mis numbered rear toggle part it MIGHT have been once..This mis matched part has a rear sight that wouldn't be on an Artillery pistol.

The sight base has been lathe turned off?
