Once repaired a broken plastic M4 body with an old knitting needle (nicked from my mum!) and epoxy .
cut a very shallow trench down the inside of the top of the receiver with a dremel . Scuffed up along the sides of the the shallow trench for the epoxy to have a good surface to hold on too then just epoxy’ed it it . Held up fine as my ‘lender’ until i binned the gun a good few yrs later .
mite work for you ?
