Hot glue is not really a good adhesive. That's probably why you are having trouble with it. Gorilla glue isn't meant for plastics. It's more of a wood glue

I also use epoxy and plumber's goop for sealing barrels up.

Call Sears, Lowes, Home Depot, Ace hardware, Autozone, etc.Now the question is, where do I find this wonderful JB weld?
Even if not listed on their site one of them will probably have it

For plastics, NOTHING beats PVC cement.
I had almost forgotten about PVC cement. I have never had to use the stuff. Maybe this stuff will help me out for attaching a coupler to a crossbows plunger tube. I can not tell you the frustration I have had. I would epoxy it but that failed, then I plumbers gooped it but that then failed. So in an overkill kinda way I epoxied it,waited 48 hours then plumbers gooped the outside in very generous amounts, waited 48 hours then filled the lower half of the coupler with hot glue and then drilled a hole through it to the plunger tube. This worked well untill I had to adjust the barrel a bit and I heard a crack.
I have to adjust the barrel because the barrel is never straight. It is either to hgh or to low or to far right or left.
And beleive me I know how to put a coupler on straight.
I think the top of my crossbows plunger head is warped. Has anyone else had this problem?
I don't feel the way I used to do.
I know its bad,
After what we had,
But I’m just not the angel you knew.

I have had this problem with two Crossbow's. The plastic on the Crossbow is different and doesn't seem to stick to anything. I have tried everything. Maybe PVC Cement would work.

I've never witnessed PVC cement failing. I guarantee that it doesn't break.

IPS Weld-On #3, #4, and several others work great if you are trying to solvent weld structural parts together.
Liquid nails works fairly well too under certain application types.

Nothing can beat zap a gap CA+ this is the best shit ever. It cures in like 5 seconds and it's stronger than the PVC that it is holding. http://zap.supergluecorp.com/pt04.html I use this ojn everything that needs to be held together forever.

I just bought some of this. I'm going to try it on by X-box and see how it works. I'll let you know Forsaken.

Only gun I've ever shot a coupler off was my TTG. Missing a piece so the plunger hits the coupler almost. Now it's super glued, hot glued, duct taped, and zip tied on. Hasn't broke yet.
