Re: WE m4 gbb
i have read that the standard charge handle on the WE can break but that a real steel change handle will fit with a bit of modding

i watched a video on you tube mate and i think you have to pull the charging handle back to pull out the cylinder . if something has broken off inside it may well be the loose piece preventing this . give it a good shake may free it just enough

Re: WE m4 gbb
This is a known problem with these M4's. as johhnyj says.
It seems to be a particular problem if you are in the habit of hitting the bolt release when the charging handle is in the backward position (I know your's has broken well before it's time though).
You can get a steel one specifically made for the We M4 (40 bucks plus shipping though!) I got one along with a load of spares, but haven't fitted it yet. I'm gonna wait until the original breaks.
There are numerous other upgrade bits too, but don't bother with the fancy chrome barrel, they have more ripples than the ice cream cabinet at Tesco's and don't shoot worth a toss. (I speak from personal experience
<)
Get back to your supplier and demand a replacement.
Don't tell the wife...
