i have a question.....i had a brain fart the other day and managed to snap pf my bolt handle on my stoeger m2000. my question is how hard is it to remove the piece still in the bolt and in stall a new one ayn advise would be greatly appreciated.

the operating handle should just slide in & out of the breech bolt

if broken , and 1/2 the handle is still stuck, a reputable gunsmith may need to remove and replacement part ordered from Stoeger industries (Benelli)

You will be able to do it yourself if you can get the bolt out.

Gun mechanics are scary but usually really easy to work on. Usually youtube has a video on what you want to do.

I was going to suggest an aftermarket bolt handle, but a quick search didnt bring up anything. Not sure what mfgs would cross over to yours buts its worth looking at. Odds are there is a tactical / more user friendly one out there that would cost close to the same as a factory replacement.
