Before we all go a bit off, a question. When it unscrews all the way out do you see a metal or brass bushing with threads in the hole or do the threads look like a wood screw so that they grip on the plastic. That will guide an answer that will surely work. You could use threadlocker or similar if it threads into a bushing. Otherwise gluing to a plastic part might take some research to find what glues (and stays bonded) to stock plastic.
This we need to know.
To your point and cpl others that have raised the question.....
Some of the suggestions are better suited for machine screw threads vs wood screw type threads.
For ex,
Using 2 part JB Weld epoxy putty would be one of the worst things to use for machine screw threads for a variety of reasons.
However, it would be a good choice if it's wood screw threads and they protrude to the inside of the hollow stock... and you don't plan to remove it easily.
The glues and loctite stuff is somewhere in between with the thread locker products being best for machine threads.
The Teflon tape is only worth trying on machine screws imo.
The tooth pick idea is only worth trying I'd it's wood screw type threads, imo.
