The problem it's not propane itself, but the pressure, that depends on temperature (under 65 F you can use propane without any problem) and the damage sometimes will become evident after some thousands BB. Moreover propane is never 100% pure, and this results in a variable pressure depending on the brand you buy and the batch it was made.
I am interested in Airsoft IPSC so I shoot many thousand BB's a month all with pistols so I shoot more than the average airsoft player that use his sidearm as a backup weapon.
