At ETH's farm, I had a very strange problem with a .22 conversion kit.  

I was told, by Frisco, that it would fit any glock 19 or 23 frame.  I attached it to my Gen 2 Glock 19 and blasted away.  It was Frisco's kit, so I tried it on my frame.

No problems until I tried to take the kit off my gun.

I tried and tried to remove it.  Others tried as well.  It appeared the takedown 'bar' was wedged in place, so I was able to remove the bar.  The slide/barrel would still not come off.

It would move backwards, but not forwards.

Finally, in desperation, i pushed hard on the back of the slide to see if there was ANY forward travel and it released.  It released so quickly, and i was puching so hard that I slammed my hand into the glock guts and got a nasty blood blister and cuts!

The slide and barrel assembly hit the ground to my left.

Why did it get stuck?  Anyone here have an answer?  I still have no idea why it would not come off.  I still don't know what it was hanging up on.  Guesses?  Similar experiences?
