I know the answer to that problem. If the gun has an automatic safety which prevents the gun from being dry fired with the lever over to the right, use a utensil of some sort to trip the lever, then fire the gun. The gun shouldn't need to be completely closed. Repeat several times if need be. Spray some kind of lubricant into the area of the cocking crank, which is the problem. Keep cocking and firing if you can, until the barrels free themselves. Absolute last resort is to remove the floorplate. I may have left something out of my procedure, but it has worked for me every time but once. I was so glad to get that one gun back together with the original parts that I can't even remember what barrels I was trying to fit to the gun in question. I never tried again.
