Question about H&R revolver

Hello I have a revolver marked model H&R DOUBLE ACTION on one side of top strap and MODEL 1904 38 CAL on the other side of top strap.. The 2&1/2 inch OCT barrel has H&R ARMS COMPANY
WORCHESTER.MASS.U.S.A.
This is a solid frame pistol with no loading gate . Nickel finish with Blued trigger guard and Case Color hammer. my Question is "is this a double action pistol [?] the reason I ask is you pull back the hammer and it will not latch back and stay cocked . I don't want to pull this 98% pistol down IF it is operating as designed as built. Can someone help. Thanks Perry Shooter
EDIT
Thanks guys the little sear 27 spring #28 is broken or missing however even if I pull it forward it will not latch [:(] time to pull down and take a look [:(] I was hoping that they made a double action only model. I also see that the way it is now the hammer does not rebound [xx(]the firing pin would be resting on a primer if you had a loaded round in all 5 cylinders [V]

If that works, squirt some oil around it, and work it to see if the spring's broken.
(Parts 27 & 28 in the schematic)

The hammer has a half-cock "safety" notch, and if it won't catch and hold that position either, the business end of sear is probably chipped off.
Be prepared for aggravation if you break it down: You'll need a slave pin to reassemble the sear and guard in frame...
