Those of you who have more experience than myself. Do you glue your inserts in with ferr l tite or something similar? Or an epoxy? I see advantages to both, I have jb weld on hand if that matters lol.
 
I use a 2 part epoxy. The slow setting stuff is the best, but I can never find it on shelves. So I use the 5 minutes stuff and work fast and only do small batches at a time. The stuff will never come undone. It will destroy your arrow if you ever try to remove the insert. It may be over kill, but it gives me a piece of mind.

I use the blue hot melt by Fer-l-title. Makes it easy to change inserts fro different setups.
 
I use hot melt on my Easton brass hit inserts for the last 6 years. I’ve never had an issue and I can remove them.

That is what I like. Never any issues with them coming out? The other part of me knows that some 235 grain zwickey's would never do me wrong ha
 
I am asking about gluing inserts into broadheads, not shaft inserts.
 
Ah, well the hot melt would work if you glueing metal to metal. That would be my choice. Then you could reheat and remove if needed.
