Any suggestion on more durable charging handle?
There are steel replacement "airsoft" ones...or I've read that you can use a real-steel one. The only difference that guys have pointed out is a little bump/nub on the airsoft one...and at least one guy took a real one, drilled and tapped a hole and used a grub screw to create the bump that is needed. Gun Gas Info forum has pics of that.

Do you recall how/why it broke? Was it while you were racking back the charging handle? When you let it snap forward? Was it not all the way forward when you fired the first shot?
