I have a older model bb gun w/ plastic stock .. The only problem i have with it is the stock screw (top rear reciver screw to stock.) is striped. My thinking is to put a little epoxy in the striped hole of the stock. Reinstall the screw and let the epoxy set up .( instant threads? ) would this work ? And what could i use as a release agent to keep the screw from becomeing a solid part of the stock. Should only need a couple drops so please don't tell me where i can buy a gallon of something.

Paste wax the screw completely twice, let dry between the coats. Look at cure/set time on your epoxy. After the set and before the cure time take out the screw and then let it finishing curing.
Some great thinking = some good ideas!
Trying to "back the screw out before the epoxy cures completely" may break the bond of the epoxy with the stock. You don't want to stress the epoxy while it is curing.

Since you have a plastic stock use isopropyl alcohol instead of acetone to clean the hole.
