I use 23 all the fucking time. I cant imagine that it would be that much quicker. Plus more fucking needles to dispose of... just my opnions | ||

Actually I draw with a 20G and it's qicker. But you can draw with the 23 with no problem, just a little slower. | ||

bro... i prefer 23's myself, yeah you draw slower and shoot slower but not enough to make a difference...after all you gonna be in a hurry while your shooting???? rushing through that process is a great way to fuck up. IMHO Mike oh yeah unless your gonna shoot with the 18 you gotta change pins anyhow right?? That's a waste of time in and of itself ------------------ | ||

Fuck that. 18 is the way to go to draw! I switch pins anyway after it touches a stoper or the bottom of the amp. You can draw an amp in 4 or 5 second with no bubbles instead of holding back the plunger for minutes to let all the oil and bubbles in. Go with 18 to draw! LAter, Green | ||

I use 18s to draw, 23s to shoot. Never tried to draw w/ a 23. Guess I always just figured that I'd rather have the sharpest needle available when I stick. (It dulls when you draw and shoot w/ the same needle because you are either holding the needle against the bottom of the amp or pushing it through a stopper) | ||

For whoever said it couldn't be that much quicker with 18 g, trust me it is. Instead of waiting for 2 minutes to withdraw the juice like you have to with 22 or 23 g, it just sucks it right up. You can use 23 g fantom1, but just be sure to switch needles afterwards because it dulls the needle when you withdraw from a multi dose vial. It is only like $9 or $10 for 100 (18 gauge) so go ahead and get some. | ||

I draw fina with 25g 1 inch needle, but I put it in a starbucks mug of boiling water, it's real fast too, I then switch the needle to 25g 1 1/2 inch to inject with. ------------------ | ||

not only is it more sanitary to use a separate needle to shoot, it is also less painful (pushing the needle through the rubber stopper can blunt the tip). So if you've got access to pins, definitely get extra, and as most of the bros have said, 18g will load faster (if that is reaaly an issue). | ||

I'm in the process of ordering for the first time but my prospective supplier doesn't provide the syringes/needles that I'll need. The products I'm ordering comes in vials. I live in San Francisco. Does anyone have any suggestions about where I might find 3 mL syringes?
