Ugghhh thats annoying

Then don't use propane...

My parents would rather I use propane, its more safe then green gas

regarding that pistol. i used to have it. when filling up the mags. make sure you give it about 3-4 jabs for a few seconds each in order to get maximum gas efficiency.
Shoots well. I recommend it.[/quote]

How do you know when its full of propane?

When you stop hearing gas enter the magazine, it has finished filling.

the 1911 holds about 15 rounds in each magazine.

Sooooooooooooooooooo, how many magazines can you get through after filling it up with propane

Thats a big, fat, dirty, lie.
LIKE I SAID:
Green Gas= Propane +Silicone
Propane= Green gas - Silicone

No, cause propane has overpressure relief valves and they're made of a stronger metal!

He's speaking about the container, which, to my knowledge, he is correct. There's a reason they keep renovating GGBottles

The "valves" wont matter. Your not gonna carry it around with you, especially propane. AND
propane is much more toxic, and in bigger quantaties.
So:
A better bottle, that when it does leak, has a higher chance to kill you.
OR
A worse bottle, that, when it does leak, has a lower chance of killing you. PLUS
It lubes your gun, and is easier to carry around.

So:
A better bottle, that DOSEN'T LEAK, can be easily lubed, and cost 80% less money.
OR
A thin walled illuminum piece of crap, cost a butt load, and is not nearly as safe.

If you want to read this article it proves my point!

Dude just buy whatever gas you want. It doesn't matter at all as long as you do it right. Shitt.

Seriously. That should be the easiest decision regarding your gun. Save us, and yourself time by just doing whatever you can afford.

K thanks for the advice

I don't get it...

How would straight propane have a chance of killing you when it leaks?
It's not the movies, propane tanks don't just explode into giant fireballs randomly.

Propane canister valves are made to release the contents in a controlled manner if the container is compromised. Even the new green gas bottles, the ones that are marketed as being safer, are far under US regulations on pressure vessels...their walls are not thick enough to hold hightened pressure for extended periods or in warm environments. I've had a green gas canister rupture in my garage on a hot day...that sure as \"Watch your language\" hasn't happened to the 20+ case of coleman propane canisters and 10-20 thinner MSR backpacking canisters stored in the same area.

When that canister ruptured...it litterally exploded...as in, the cansister was split in 2, releasing everything all at once.
I've seen Coleman canisters rupture, but nothing like what that green gas did.

If you're talking toxicity, I would much rather have to breath in straight propane than propane with all kinds of extra chemical additives.
(LOL just like I'm sure the fish in the Gulf would rather swim in oil than oil plus dispersants)

Only time I would suggest against propane is if your replica's internals are plastic, which is extremely rare nowadays.
Propane does exert more pressure on your internals, but again...most metal GBB pistols and GBB-R's can easily handle it.

Buying green gas is just fueling the lying, cheating, and unregulated market of propane resale.
With GG, you're buying 1/10th the ammount of propane for 4 times as much money. And that extra cost is not due to the silicon.

It's due to the deep pockets and greasy fingers of the fat-cats trying to cheat all the little airsofters out of their money.
