I respect my friend Joe Wood's opinion, but adhesives are so easy, I see no reason not to give them a try. If they fall out, you can still shoot the gun until you try something else. On the other hand, they may last forever. I have used a little slug of electrician's tape on the forend lug that lasts for about as long as I am careful taking the gun apart. I will probably find some of that Black Max stuff if one of my guns ever gets loose. Unfortunately, I doubt if that is ever going to happen.
