I fell like im the only one who has this problem with my gun, when i pulled the charging handle of my KWA CQB. The charging handle got stuck and it broke my bolt plate. The charging handle works but it won't open the dust cover. How do i put a new bolt plate in?

You are speaking of this part:

Never heard of one breaking. Sorry to hear that.
You don't actually need it for the function of your gun, but I prefer to have them, myself.

They are very easy to install.
Essentially you swing open - or remove - the upper receiver and drop the bolt cover in place with the catches facing up - towards the charging handle - right in its resting place inside the upper receiver and behind the dust cover. It may help you to have the dust cover open or it may help you to have it closed. Refer to picture to see the bolt cover catches I am talking about.

When you pull the charging handle back, it has a catch lever that grabs the bolt cover rear catch and pulls it back.
When the charging handle is released, the force of the spring pulls the charging handle forward and that same charging handle catch lever hits with force on the forward catch of the bolt cover, pushing it forward.

The key is to locate the charging handle catch lever and then work the bolt cover into position.
Sometimes it is easier with the inner barrel in place, and sometimes it is easier without the inner barrel.
You will just have to work at it a bit and see what works better for you.

This may seem awkward to install your first time.
It took me several tries my first time doing this.
Once you know for certain what you are doing, it takes 5 seconds or less to install this.
Let us know how you do.
