Weldless Bolt FGC9MK2 - Possible to epoxy instead of cutting cube slot?

Hey everyone,

I'm currently working on my FGC-9 build and I'm finding the process of cutting a cube slot for the weldless bolt assembly to be incredibly tedious. I was wondering if it's feasible to simply epoxy everything in place instead.

To give some context:

• I don't plan on using a threaded rod because I have a few solid stock pieces made from a lathe that were quite costly.
• My goal is to avoid the complexity of cutting a slot for cube.

Has anyone here tried this method or have any insights on whether epoxy would provide a strong enough bond for the bolt assembly? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
