Guys, I got it fixed. The sear deactivator was holding it back so I used a fishing hook and a pair of needle nose pliers to free it up then tapped on the back of the slide and it came right off. Thank you all the help. If you're ever in Eastern NC I'll buy ya a beer :D

I've tried this with and without the magazine and it keeps stoping about 1/2" too short. I have no idea what it could be catching on but I am scared to beat on the slide and bend whatever it maybe catching on.

Guys, One of my friends got a hold of my pistol and thought he was Clint Eastwood. He tried to field strip it and has messed it up way past my knowledge. I can not get to the sear deactivator and have no idea how to fix this. I know I can take it to a gunsmith but I am broke and cant afford to...
