I don't have any problem running oil through a 25...just run it under hot water for a bit. Goes right through.

Good idea

!

Smart solution. Do you also experience less pain, compared with a 23G?

Rofl if a 23g needle gives you ANY pain you are a complete and utter pussy.

I just pulled a hair out of my arm and it hurt 5000 times worse than any injection I've ever done lol........

I use a 22 gauge and inject into my glutes, switching sides each week. Usually there's no blood and no pain. The only pain is filling the syringe.

Not sure about this. Sometimes, when doing a glute shot, I will get a painful cramp in my side...

You will be fine with at 21 gauge, but it is nice to have something a little thiner. I usually use a 21 for drawing and a 25 for pinning. I can remember a very very long time ago when I got some sust redijects that came with 18 gauge and I didn't have access to pins like we do these days and I had to use that. That is not a good feeling my friend.

22g x 1 is great

I've used 21g a few times when i was out of 23g.

I typically use 23g and 25g.

jesus fuck how can some of you guys pin with 20s or some shit...
i use 27Gs and sometimes 25Gs for uncomfortable spots like delts where i cant hold the needle for too long... when cruising i use 29G slin pins ..
20Gs? fuck that

Tedim · « **Reply #35 on:** February 16, 2014, 10:44:01 AM »

I use 22g x 1 1/2 every week

I used 18s in the Army for antibiotic delivery, y'all a bunch of pussies.

some gear takes way too long to get through the needle
Sometimes using a small needle and having it in for ages with your hand shaking shizzos three days without a drink is going to do more damage than a bigger pin in just a few seconds

I've followed Wez suggestion last Friday, and pulling and pinning went much easier (thanks, Wez!)

All of my Organon deca-durabolin amps, come with free 21 G needles+syringe.

I just replace the neddle with a 26g after loading all my gear...

OK, I thought you threw it right away. Weird that they include such a low gauge.
