Both so far have been good to me in my limited applications with high power rifle banded front sights and some simplistic Luger front sights.

I would feel entirely comfortable with this type of Loctite, Acraglas (which is commonly use to install barrel liners) or any high-strength adhesive. The only drawback is that once it's there, it's pretty much there forever. The solder is easy to reheat if you need to adjust.

That's why I made that leveling block i showed in this thread:
http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=30581 . I put the barrel in a receiver, then I used a level on the receiver and the block and adjusted until they were level. I had already tinned the parts so the fit was snug enough to hold the band in the right position until I got it soldered. Let me know if you want to borrow the block, it's just sitting there in a drawer anyway.
