Propane?

if im correct for gas pistols u can use

green gas
red gas
or propane?

i hear that propane is better but where can i get that from?

help?

Propane didn't cycle my GBB as hard as green gas did, so I don't use it. Plus, it doesn't contain lubricants like green gas does, and it stinks to high heaven. Can't say about red gas.

pretty much true about the stinking part...red gas is almost impossible to get now due to DOT regs and hazmat.
Green gas is the way to go but propane is cheaper.

I own this adaptor and Im really impressed. If you get one be sure to use the coleman propane stove bottles and not the cheap knockoff brands. The threads of the adaptor will cross if you use anything other than coleman or bernzamatic

Remember if you use propane. You must add silicone oil to keep the seals pliable.

I don't think anyone would carry it anymore because of the cost of doing so. The DOT regulations Jason was talking about is a combination of fees required to have the stuff shipped to you, as well as permits required to keep it on site at the store. There are simply too many expensive hoops to jump through to carry red gas to warrant doing so, especially when you're talking about something such as air gun gas. It isn't like it's something that you have to constantly restock like a fuel station restocks gasoline. If that were the case, then maybe a store would carry it.

No thats not Red Gas. 134a is a gas used in Japan were they have laws on their FPS. 134a has a lower expansion rate that Green Gas. Its the opposite of Red Gas.
