The way I hear it, green gas is just propane. I've run 2 1911s stock on propane for months without any issue. If anything, it's once you start putting in parts that issues start popping up.

My Take:

TM's are generally used in conjunction with duster for longevity. But everyone says that it can handle green just fine.

But i wouldn't recommend it with a stock slide.
Would recommend upgrading some of the internals and upgrading the slide to a metal one to handle the higher pressure gas like GG.

My friend's TM 5.1 had a stock plastic slide and was using green gas. After a game or two, the slide broke. But you know, his might be one in the few that may be defective or something
