Green Gas
 
Hey guys, goes anyone know if there's any propane manufacturers who don't use that rotten egg smell in their propane? I'm this close to ordering green gas online simply because the smell my gun discharges now literally makes me gag and will make me throw up eventually. I have to shoot my gun with a nose plug now and it's really not comfortable. From what I've read, the only thing I can do is go green gas, but it's apparently unsafe to ship? Any suggestions?

Thanks
Cheers,
Matt

isn't there a regulation that propane must be made with that smell?
you could always wear extra strong cologne... but your enemy would probably smell it too :P

get usto it cause every one else used propain

it would be nice if some one started doing propain bottles and labeling it green gass with a nicer smell perhaps burnt gunpouder

Use the blue propane bottles for propane torches, they smell a lot better than the green camping bottles.

Oh damn! Thanks for the tip, I got TONS of those in the basement. But while we're on the topic of gas, I've read in a couple places about green gas being potentially unstable for shipping, anyone know the extent of the truth of this? I know it has no pressure relief valve, but is it a serious hazard or is it worth ordering (money aside)?

"green gas" is in an arisall can and transportingly very very unstable because of the point of its got no safty release valve if you heat up a propain tank evenly and in a way it wont cause a stress fracture it will leak gass out the top to prevent it from going boom

I'd ship ground anyway, I'm an aspiring musician, I can't afford air shipping, or this sport for that matter! =P

I looked at the airsoft innovations porpane adapter v4 and i want to buy one. But they are out of stock. Are there any other good propane adapters(for green gas) that i can order.

AI is the only company who makes it

FYI, the blue ones contain the rotten egg smell as well. I bought a couple a day or two ago because they are easier to hold. Just tried releasing some and the smell is still present... Throw away those panties, Matt, or get yourself an aep...

or you could just spray cologne on the grip of your gun

Don't you have any problem sleeping at night know that you have a fuel-air bomb right under your ass??

I sure would... that is why I keep mine outside in a ventilated place...
