The slide release "button" on my buckmark fell off tonight. Upon close inspection it appears the lever is glued to the actual "finger release"?????
Anyone have any ideas how or what I use to glue this back together with?
Outside of this the gun has performed flawlessly.

Can you explain what part broke using the actual terminology? I have a Buck Mark and it has a
slide stop lever just like any other pistol (Browning's term is
stop open latch), but I am hard-pressed to find the slide release "button" or the "finger release," assuming these terms refer to separate parts. I'm not trying to be an asshole. I simply don't understand from the language you're using.
If I remember correctly, the entire slide stop assembly will fall off when you remove the grips. There is no glue that holds it in place. Assuming this is the part you're referring to, and it's falling out in spite of your grips being firmly screwed to the frame, then perhaps the grips are defective? Or, do you mean that the slide stop lever broke in half and only the portion of the lever that protrudes is what broke off in spite of the rest of it still being on the frame? I would just order a new part from Browning, or Numrich, whatever's cheaper. I can't imagine epoxying a metal part back together as being a good permanent solution for this.
