How far off do you have the slide? In that picture you're indicating the outer barrel won't go over part of the recoil rod assembly, is that correct? If thats the case, you may want to try to pull the outer barrel upwards us much as you can, while trying to slide it back, there is always some play between the outer barrel and the slide. At the same time use a precission screwdriver to push the recoil rod down. That may work, assuming thats the problem.
Is the hammer decocked? If it is, thats what is stopping the slide from coming off.
