Ride the slide forward and then attempt to remove the slide from the frame by pulling back on the slide as you normally would and pull down the slide take down lever.

Post a pic of slide and barrel positions.
Make sure the barrel is locked in, (up) all the way.
As said, pull slide cover off if possible.

Shine a light in the back and see if the sear is holding the stiker.
Its possible the safety plunger is stuck as well. You can use a paper clip to try and push stuff around from the back.

Don’t detail strip it as often. It’s not necessary.

I thought you were doing it after every range trip.
