To add to the reply above:

From your description, it sounds like you have a REALLY light rebound spring.

A spring that is too light will give you a really light pull--but it will not allow the trigger to move far enough to get that top trigger shelf out of the way of the DA fly. This is what is catching the back of the trigger and pushing it down.

I suggest that you get someone who knows exactly how to disassemble a Smith and Wesson revolver (hint: if this person starts toward your gun with a screwdriver or other lever to pry the sideplate off, run away---fast!!!), and replace the rebound spring with a factory spring--which I believe is a 16 pounder. Reassemble, and then prove the handgun with at least two cylinders of ammunition at the range.
