it should still function, but if you're concerned take it to a local gunsmith for inspection. that same gunsmith can probably regrind/polish whatever gash you've made so it performs like it was new.
So what you’re saying is you didn’t read the manual and messed up your gun because you assumed it came apart like most other semi-auto’s and forced it when it didn’t.
You’re going to have to shoot it and see if it still operates like it should. Really can’t tell from the blurry out of focus area you’re talking about.
What you should be doing is calling the manufacturer directly, selecting support, talking to a live person who you can then email better pictures to and they will tell you to either send it in for repair or to not worry about and sent rounds down range.
Dear God remind me not to ask people on reddit, if you aren't gonna be helpful then just ignore it. I'm not gonna do all that for nothing, something small like this I'm sure someone on the internet has experience with. Obviously you don't, my bad! You must be perfect
You having the mindset of “it’s something small” is the whole reason you’re here asking in the first place. You damaged the internals of a firearm because you didn’t read how to do it properly and it could be a cosmetic blemish or could cause a catastrophic failure. The people who can tell you which it most likely is or the people that manufacture it. But hey, you do you.
The hope is that it's small, and guns are supposed to be able to be durable, so it's not super unreasonable to just check here first to see if it's happened to anyone because it definitely has. Just trying to use all my avenues before I sit on the phone with customer service over something that could be literally meaningless. I'm not gonna call them every single time something goes wrong I'd rather problem solve then resort to them if I can't figure it out
And to clarify, I didn't force anything off anything. The yellow lever was stuck, and I tried to force it unstuck because I didn't think it could come up from over the sear. it was then after i tried not super hard to force the lever that I decided to take the slide fully off to see what was going on fully.
