For medal models? I use superglue and stick the medals on my vets. 
Oh, metal models?
For me, bullet to the brain.
Alternatively, any superglue except for GW superglue.

I've been using two part epoxy and It's worked pretty well. Just wait a little bit before putting it on so it can start to get sticky before you put it on. You'll have to hold it in place for a while, which makes it difficult to try to assemble multiple models or put parts on the same model very quickly, but it has a terrific bond and can also be used as a gap filler.

Don't worry, I tease.
I seriously hate metal models though.

Two part epoxy (as has been mentioned) or superglue (any but the GW one.).
There are many superglues out there and they are mostly cheaper than GWs one. The ones that aren't cheaper are still superior in performance (and are designed for industrial needs).
I use Pacer's ZAP! range of superglues, the medium specifically. The thin is too thin and by the time you realise you've used too much, it has already run down your hand.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

The best superglue I've found is Gorilla brand. Sets quickly and has more flex to it than most other brands.
For two part epoxy, you will find none better than JB Kwik. Sets in 5 minutes and is hard as steel!
Find it at home depot or Lowe's.
