M24 V2 Cocking handles do break. Ive heard many stories regarding this and due to their forged casting in the V2 they just become brittle and snap, It doesnt really surprise me either. The V3's are C&C cut, they will bend before they break.

I always cradle the whole rear of the bolt with my thumb and index, pulling the lever with my 3rd 4rth and 5th fingers. This prevents the Cylinder from bending from the force of yanking on the handle. Its recommended for low fps springs (450, CA Stock fps), but its pretty much required with higher fps setups.
