Author | Topic: Why use anything bigger than a 25g needle??? | ||

I don't care if it takes me 10mins to inject! I'm not shoving anything bigger than a 23g up my ass, or any other bodypart... ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Myself I use 27g pins and a lot of warm water. I push 3cc thru the pin EOd. Granted it takes some time. But thats all I got is time. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Uhhh huh. I got 24's, but usually get 25's. With a little heat up under hot water, Ive injected even the thickest oils. Why risk the scar tissue of bigger tips? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Ive gotten EVERYTHING through 25's. From sustanon to enanthate, to prop to deca and EQ. In desperation (ran out of pins) I did 500mg of sustanon in 1/2 cc shots with an insulin needle. Hot water baby, its all about the hot water! I used to use 22's and 23's, but now I have considerablr scar tissue in my delts from it... fuck that. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Explain the hot water thing plz. I used 22 gauge. That is all I've ever used. I just pull the skin apart, get the GF, and she "puts" it in. Takes 1.5 min to inject 3cc and I am over. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Using anything thicker then a 23 gauge is "not kosher". Haha, excuse me for the expression (no i am not Jiddish). Nowadays the thickest needle i use and will ever use again is a 25 gauge. This is for the tick Primo oil, so it must be good for anything else. No heating, 2 cc's in the butt takes about 45 sec. For waterbased a 30 gauge. After having used a 30 gauge for 3 months and taking a 23 g for my first Primo shot since about 5 months, it looked like a canon. Even the 25 g looks like a canon to me. So "viva" the waterbased roids allowing a much THINNER needle. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

They are not scared of the little prick they are concerned with scar tissue buildup which can cause obstruction in the dispersement of the AS in the muscle if it gets too bad. Smart thing to worry about. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Badass -- Heating the oil lowers its visciosity and allows it to flow more readily through the pins. I heat the amps prior to drawing it (BTW, heated glass breaks more easily, IMO)and use hot water to keep it warm once it is in the syringe. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Maybe its just me, but I tend to bend the 1.5 smaller gauge needles. Maybe scar tissue, maybe muscle density, I don't know, but I like at least a 22 or 23 for quads or glutes. Any one else have this problem? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
