Charles, What type of glue worked best when you replaced your AM handrails? Ed Davis Stockton, Ca

Over all those years the only damage was a broken front handrail on the GP35 and a broken rear handrail on the FP. I got replacements from AM in quick order for a couple bucks (thanks Ron). One caveat- I don't try to glue them on rigidly. That allows their flexibility to help prevent breakage. Handling does require a little common sense and merely remembering not to be overly rough. Also, if you paint portions yellow, it seems the paint won't adhere well to the delrin like material and may need a retouch. None of mine are painted.
