Repair question

[stalker1911]

Any recommendation on a glue/epoxy that can be used to reattach the part on the barrel that the forearm hooks to. It looks like the factory used an glue or epoxy because there is no sign of soldering etc. Thanks.

If it truly looks to be glued or epoxied, if mine... would clean off any remains of glue with more than likely acetone,
might slightly rough up areas with sandpaper, next would use JB Weld (the regular stuff not quick set) and clamp
it and let set then see how it holds

You have a break action shotgun (double or single barrel), and that hook is the piece attached to the barrel(s) that the forearm snaps into?

Yep tried JB pops back off like it was Elmer’s glue.

You may need to drill a small indentation for the epoxy to hold onto.

I can guarantee you that part was not put on with some sort of glue or epoxy.

Take it to Roy King of Roy’s Gun Shop in Adairsville. Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s done a thousand of them. 770-773-3548
