Nevermind, it's Working now. The lever wasn't fully... wounded (Is that the right word?). Then I had to do this

A little extra, will the mirror smash the rear element of my Super Takumar 55 F2 (SN 766961)? I know that it will hit an 8 element 50mm f1.4.

Hello, Today I got my first film camera, a Pentax H3, from our local equivalent to eBay. When I took it out of the box it was working no problem, while testing it, I put in into T shutter speed, fire the shutter, and accidentally move the advance lever without changing the shutter speed (All of this without film BTW), fired another shoot, still in T, and that was it. The shutter button is locked, the little window is red (Meaning that the shutter is wound IIRC) and the advance lever will do nothing (It moves freely). The shutter speed dial moves, but it won't go to the T position again without some force, and it makes a clockwork sound. The mirror is down, and the shutter curtains appear to be fully closed
