Gunsmithing Rubber forearm pads on Harris bi-pod fell off

[Hunt]

Not sure what are of the site to post this in....

The rubber pads on my bipod that sits b/t the bipod and the forearm fell off due to cleaning solvents. What does Harris use to keep the pad on the metal? Is it some type of glue? What will get them to stick to the metal?

Gorilla glue works good or a little epoxy if you are so inclined.

Rubber cement?

Contact cement, or simply buy some self stick Foamies neoprene foam sheets at the WalMart craft/hobby dept. 8 1/2" x 11" runs about a buck, contact cement runs $2-$3.

Even superglue will do, my favourite is from pacer tech with zip kicker. From a RC modell shop.

I have to ask, how did you get cleaning solvent on the forearm? Curiosity has
got the best of me. Also wash your pad and mount with soap and water , then wipe
it down with alcohol to make sure all the solvent is out of it before you glue it.
