Usually get mine from The Nocking Point. Fastest and cheapest shipping I've found.

I've used JB Weld and Loctite 2 part epoxy with good results.

I use our low temp hot melt, Super 735, on my personal arrows as I like to move things around a lot. For customers we use epoxy gel for a more permanent bond.

if I'm positive I will never have to seperate them I like 5-minute epoxy because I have plenty of time to get them spinning perfect before they set-up.. hot melt I'll use in a pinch or if I know I'll need to remove the inserts at some point..

I have settled on a gel type epoxy called Epo Grip Fastset.It sets in about 6-8 minutes an isn't your daddy's fastset epoxy.It is tough.I use it for installing inserts,adapters and footings.It gives me plenty of time to align everything but I don't have to baby it after a few minutes.I also find a ton of other uses for it in the shop.I get it from taxidermy suppliers.

J-B weld here. You can still heat the adapter up with a small torch and remove if needed.

not sure about the regular gorilla glue but the stuff I used expanded and pushed the broadhead off the ferral a bit and then set-up so all the tips where wobbly even though I spin test before I set a side.
not sure which stuff I had but be sure
