Hello Galen; First let me say ,the majority of these guys are far more savvy than I ,about working on their Parkers ,I have a good friend that lives near by and I recruit him when I have a problem ! With that said , I had the same problem with a GH grade 20 Ga. on the outside everything appeared normal and when you opened the gun to cock it ,it sounded as if the gun cocked ,but the trigger wouldn't drop the hammer ,ended up when we opened up the gun the sear spring was broken on the left side and the hammer wasn't cocking ,that would be part # 7 on our Tech Info page ,as Jack said odd that both sides don't function ,but as full of gunk and rust ,and as long as my gun had sat without being opened and cocked ,it is a miracle both of my springs weren't broken the first time I tried to cock the gun ! This would be considered an easy fix by most ,but let me say ,if you have never seen a Parker taken down before at least a few times ,you will do well to have an experienced smith at hand !Also if this is the problem ,I had to have a gentleman make the sear springs for me as they are nearly impossible to find ! Good luck with your gun !
