    Hello,
    Does your slide not lock back at all? Ever?

    As for you not being able to eject the magazine and it's stuck maybe it's catching on the blowback unit loading nozzle. Can you rack / move the slide backwards by hand?
    If you can, do that first, then press the magazine release and see if the magazine drops..

    Give it a try and let me know.

    If you still struggle let me know..

    ATB, Marc.
