Curious if anyone considered or used Rocksett as an adhesive to attach an action to a stock. I ask, as it seems to be a method that would allow removal of the action from the stock by soaking it in water. You may have to clean the trigger after the soak, but it would allow a more secure connection and still be removable without having to use heat and ruining the synthetic stock. If I were to do this it would be with an action that is already epoxy bedded and the Rocksett would only be the adhesive for the action.

Looking for experience, opinions and other Fuddlore if this is possible. Also, I am not "in love" with the current factory plastic stock, but would consider it as removing/decreasing a variable. If it were to work, I would have a more "drop test" worth system.

I haven't tried it on an action, but I have used Rocksett on fasteners. I don't think it would have enough viscosity to bond a stock to an action. It wouldn't stay where you needed it before curing. It would work on the action screws to keep them in place.

On comp guns they use Marine Tex, JB etc to glue them.
