WE-Tech XDM Compact issue

[PeyotZET]

I recently purchased WE-Tech XDM Compact. Out of the box it shot great! Except for this:

Upon firing the gun, when the slide blows back, the plastic gas nozzle/BB loader stays stuck in the inner barrel. The gun ends up firing as though it has a full-auto mode, or simply blowing back and being unable to fire again until the slide gets pulled back a second time (loading an additional BB).

I have read that there is a fix for this that involves some light filing, however I did not understand  the article because I'm no pro at terminology (this is my first GBB pistol). I don't want to deal with the hassle of returning the item to the online retailer.

Anyone know what to do in this case, or have advice? Should I just try to return it, or is there a simple fix that I can use?

Found this if it helps, good luck!

Thanks gabetempe! Fixed!

NOTE: Any XDM users attempting this fix, the video says to punch out a rod at the rear of the pistol. At least on the XDM Compact 3.8 there is none: the dimples at the back of the gun are cosmetic and made of thin plastic. Instead, you must remove the grip to reveal a small phillips screw. Once removed, the rest of the instructions on the video can be followed with little to no problems.


_{Notice how my new XDM has even newer holes punched near the hammer.}

Be certain not to touch anything else unless you are very familiar with gas pistols. Otherwise, you're gonna have a bad time.
