with my g18 anyways, this is what I found. You have to hold the hammer back a bit while inserting .. if you try to put the hammer back in while in rest position (position hammer is left after a shot has been fired) the bottom of hte hammer will push the fireing pin out of position.
it also helps to have a long thin pair of tweezers handy. Oh ya, the hammer spring does not have to align up in the correct position on the lip of the main assembly. you can push the spring off to the side and once the hammer assembly is put back together use a small screw driver to to push the spring up and align it in the correct position. This will releave tension on the hammer making it easyer to install back in.
* the position of the hammer spring i'm talking about is where the spring rests against the botton of the frame that holds the ahmmer assembly, not where the spring is held against the hammer itself *
as long as you can get the hammer partially in with the fireing pin not out of alignment not so bad you can slowly work the rod the holds it all together in ... push the hammer around and push the pin in a bit more, use a small screw driver or tweezers to push the firing pin and pusht eh assembly pin a bit further... move the hammer around a bit etc. Eventurally it will go back together.
The first time i took this assembly apart it took me damm near an hour to get it togetehr again .. now I can do it in ab out 5 - 10 minutes... all it really takes is a bit of patients
good luck
