Cameron364 Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Just wondering what gas they run off, is it Green Gas or Propane and what are the pros/cons of both gases?
Tristan Orr Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Green gas and Propane are the same thing! The difference between them is Green gas is Propane mixed with silicon oil, thats it! So you can use either, but if you use propane your need to lubricate you gun your self after each use.
Supporters M_P Posted October 14, 2011 Supporters Posted October 14, 2011 you should lubricate the gun regardless of the gas
Cameron364 Posted October 14, 2011 Author Posted October 14, 2011 What gas is better for a first GBB pistol, I do have some silicon oil in a dropper bottle, but what would I do, what is the process of lubing a pistol?
Supporters M_P Posted October 14, 2011 Supporters Posted October 14, 2011 Is go with propane, beginner or expert it by far the cheapest Best thing to do is go on youtube. Airsplat made a really good video on maintaining pistols, I cant find the link in my bookmarks, so have a search on utube- it can't be that hard to find
lil airsofter Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 get green gas and you have to lube it less and it is easier to get on site generally.
Supporters M_P Posted October 14, 2011 Supporters Posted October 14, 2011 It's way too expensive though Green gas is propane with added lube, get propane its miles cheaper. You won't need to lube the gun more with propane either- just do as you would with green
lil airsofter Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 not if you want consistent performance.
Supporters M_P Posted October 14, 2011 Supporters Posted October 14, 2011 It's exactly the same as in green gas. You lube the gun the same amount. You add line into the adapter, this makes it green gas
Tristan Orr Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 Yes you add 2 drops of silicon oil with the adapter, every 8-10 fills. The only thing i don't like about propane is the smell! Green Gas has a agent added to hide the smell of propane. But you get use to it and another thing don't smoke if your using a GBB/GBBR with propane in it, not a good idea.
Cameron364 Posted October 15, 2011 Author Posted October 15, 2011 Is there special airsoft propane becasue my Mum makes jewlerry and she uses propane for something, would that be alright but I just need to buy an adapter, also where do you get those from, Thanks again, Cameron!
Supporters M_P Posted October 15, 2011 Supporters Posted October 15, 2011 fire support had some it needs to be from a can that the adapter can fit on- colmans works
Supporters TPI Posted October 15, 2011 Supporters Posted October 15, 2011 Lol i just wanna see someone smoking round a GBBR now
Tristan Orr Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Lol, just means they have no eye brows and the gun shoots fire. Oh and a black face
Cameron364 Posted October 16, 2011 Author Posted October 16, 2011 My Mum does use propane but she has a big cylinder of it, what I thought were portable Propane canisters actually turned out to be Butane, then I would have a black face and no eye brows!
Tristan Orr Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I get my propane from my dad as he is a plumber so I get it dead cheap! Also the adapter fit perfectly.
dirtydash Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 My Mum does use propane but she has a big cylinder of it, what I thought were portable Propane canisters actually turned out to be Butane, then I would have a black face and no eye brows! Butane is less powerful than propane
Supporters M_P Posted October 27, 2011 Supporters Posted October 27, 2011 yeah butane doesnt really work. on another note- fnck me you have a lot of g36's
