I need your help! I had my Para Ordnance P12.45 field stripped to check the function of the magazine and slide stop. Went to put the gun back together with the slide assembled (less recoil guide rod and slide stop). Slid slide onto frame rails and it didn't feel right. Slide is jammed onto the frame, and only moves back and forth about 1/4". I'm afraid to force it off. I put it in the other room before I tear it up. Anyone ever run into something like this? I can put slide stop into the barrel link, but it won't go rearward to the installation notch. I cannot install the recoil guide rod. It will not catch the threads inside. Any help is greatly appreciated!
