A few weeks ago I purchased a used CZ 22 hornet. Have only shot maybe 150 rounds thru this gun, and it looked like things were going well in working up a couple of different loads. today, at the end of my range session, the rounds were not feeding very well from the clip. Then when i tried to remove the bold, the handle came off in my hand. I removed the rest of the bolt, and have messed around, looked at the CZ pdf file with instructions on bolt disassembly. This is puzzling, because I am guessing that I must have unscrewed the "bolt sleeve" thus releasing the handle. But the last 30 minutes I have been trying my best to get things corrected. It ain't workinnnngggg.

Any ideas? I will certainly email CZ USA and ask for help, but thought that somebody here may have some input that assists with my ineptitude.

Thanks!
