Ruger Blackhawk cylinder jams

My Ruger New Model Blackhawk in .45 LC is brand new(bought new off gunbroker) The gun was made in 2016. The first time I tried to shoot it the cylinder jammed. I could see that the transfer bar safety was getting stuck under the firing pin. The bar drops down as normal when the hammer begins to cock. As I continue to cock the hammer the transfer bar moves up but it lodges under the firing pin. The revolver does not exhibit this behavior when unloaded. Any ideas?

That would be the first thing I would check.
