Trigger Frustration!

To check it in range, load a **single** round into the magazine, load it into the chamber, (if your gun has "hold-open" feature, remove the magazine after loading), and fire it. Then don't touch the toggle, remove the side plate and use your finger to push down the front tip of the sear (**beaware where the gun points, even if the chamber is supposed to be empty** ), if the firing pin does not move, it's not cocked.

If that's the problem, I would not suggest fixing it yourself. Find a professional gunsmith and he would handle it.
