It'll be fine. It's a G-Lock.

You missed the rear rails?

Check to make sure the trigger group is fully seated and you didn't push the pin in under the hole of the trigger group in the grip.

im assuming the trigger group isnt seated but im not sure how to push it down, do i just take the pin out and push down on it?

Have you ever replace a Glock trigger assembly before?

Take it apart again and double check your work. Post pics, we might be able to see what you did wrong.

The whole problem is i cant take it apart, its stuck on the front rails i cant dissasemble it like i normally do because the rear of the slide is not attached to the rear rails its only attached to the front.

Sounds like this.

Take all the pins out, and make sure the action block and trigger assembly is fully seated.

i tried to replicate what you did, but it doesn't seem possible without a great amount of force. is your locking block installed correctly?

If you can get the slide plate off the back, you can remove the firing pin and release the slide.  Relook at the diagrams to reassemble the trigger and trigger assembly.  

When you put the slide on, gently line up the front and rear rails, don't worry, its a common error and has happened to many people.

Me, I'd protect the frame with leather pads or some such, put the frame in a vice, then take a wooden mallet and smack the back of the slide.

You'll need to take the back plate off.  It's kinda difficult to explain.  I'd suggest looking at some videos on Youtube.

Doesn't it help to have the trigger in the depressed position during disassembly/reassembly?

No big deal, easily fixed.

Can you snap the trigger, if you can, you are in luck.  (looks like your trigger is engaged)
Snap the trigger, hold down the take down lever, and use your palm or a rubber hammer and hammer the rear of the slide.  A few good whacks, the slide should come off.

Try that first, if it does not work, then them you have to take off the back plate by trying to gedt a gap between the slide and the frame.
Use a small punch and depress the the sear, to free the firing pin.
Once that happened, hold down the take down lever, and give the rear a few good whack.

Glocks are tools, they are build for tough handling.  If you are worried about cosmetic scratches, put a box with bubble wrap in front of the frame when you whack the rear of the slide while holding down the take down lever.
Good luck.

If you have the firing pin out, make sure that the gun isn't loaded (sorry always good to check), work the trigger , pull down the slide release lever and the slide should come off.

ETA:  good that you got it off!
