What gas?

Hello every one, I'm new with gas blow back, and I want to know what I need to make it work, and especially, what's the difference between duster gas and green gas, and where to get them (I know I can order green gas at ranger's).

So thanks to any one who help me or tell me where I can find the info.

Duster is HFC13a and propane/greengas (same thing) is HFC22.

duster is less powerfull but usually safer for stock (plastic) gbbs. green gas is basically propane with silicone oil mixed into it.

buy one of these.... propane adapter

and some of this... silicone oil

and buy propane from your local CT and you are good to go. much cheaper than green gas. but remember, propane will break your sidearm if it cannot handle it. that is why duster is available. on the other hand, some metal guns dont work well with duster because it is not powerful enough.

all depends on what you are buying. (some plastic gbbs will withstand propane for a while before the slide cracks/breaks)

edit: just noticed you are not age verified and are not of legal age to purchase.

Dude, think before you post. That contributed very little, if anything at all.

I am going to add one thing: it's generally a bad idea to use propane or green gas in a stock GBB with a plastic slide and barrel. It could fly off or explode, which would be bad if it's 6 inches from your face. Make sure you do your research if you decide to use it: read reviews and see what people have to say about running the gun on different gases.

Not having my age verified here do not mean I can't buy it.
