Does anyone know where to get green gas online? The only airsoft store near me sells green gas cans for 15$ and I shouldn't have to pay that much for a can that lasts only several hundred rounds. If This is in the wrong section, please move it; I am looking for a web deal so this section seemed right.

ASM doesn't have green gas.

Why not propane?

 

[Masterjuggler98]

I could get straight propane and just get an adapter. Would the adapter work the same as the green gas cans, as in press and the mag is filled?

 

[king..kranium]

Yeah. You put it on the propane can. Watch a video. There are tons on YouTube.

Do you think I should keep it a dry gas or add silicon to the mix? I would be lubing it with white silicone grease for metal parts and silicon oil for o-rings.

 

[Cheese Man]

Lube the individual parts by hand, much more precise that way.

Alright so you got me on the straight propane path. I have one of those popane lines from my house going directly to my grill, so if I got one of those refil adaptors could I refil the smaller propane bottles with the line or would I need the compressed liquid propane from a tank?

They're way too cheap to even think about re-filling in my opinion. I think it used to cost me about $4 for two cans. Each can used to last me many months.

 

[Masterjuggler98]

I know but If I can just refill it using the line then I can save a few trips to the store and a few dollars better spent on other upgrades.

I am sure the small propane tanks are not made to be refilled. That might not be a wise idea.

Also, if you are filling off the 20 lbs., you should use a regulator I would thing, or risk over-pressurising the mag.

Apparently refilling the small propane tanks is a federal offense? Don't quote me on it, but somewhere somebody told me that the little ones can't be transported after being refilled...

I don't know for sure, just thought I throw a stick in the water.

 

[Masterjuggler98]

@Libelle- I would be refilling off of a propane line coming directly from the source through my house that connects to my grill so I don't need the tanks. Thats what I was asking about.

@Fuzzy- I think I heard something like that too so I'll ask my local police department next time I get the chance.

 

[Cheese Man]

It is also a very bad idea to refill propane tanks...

 

[Masterjuggler98]

Why is that? It's just adding back liquid propane. Is there something more I'm not understanding?

 

[spellisaac]

My propane bottles last me about 3 months before I have buy a new one, so I really don't mind throwing them away cause they last so long.

 

[Masterjuggler98]

Well how often do you use them?

I asked Hank Hill, and he told me a special regulator is needed to fill a propane cylinder. I fell a sleep in the middle, but there was a bunch of stuff about frost burn and burned houses. I did find a guide to something similar though.

My favourite part: Under no circumstances should anyone ever refill disposable propane cylinders using the following method.
