You are really better to wait for some Brownell's Acra-glass.
It's the best.
With that said, in a pinch I've used hardware store 1 hour epoxy.
The trick to getting the most from 5 minute and 1 hour epoxies if to get an exact 50/50 mix, and to mix it thoroughly.
On the 1 hour stuff, I'll mix for 5 minutes.
Try to keep from forming air bubbles in the mix, since this weakens the strength and hardness.
When curing, put the stock in a warm place.
A really good mix, and warmth make for a tougher finished product.
