Military surplus Syringe field kit.

**YouCanDoIt** · 02-02-2005, 01:07 PM

I recently purchased a Military surplus Syringe field kit.
It's pretty neat looking - all in a metal box, that doubles as a sterilizing pan. Two syringes, made of metal and glass (re-usable). One smaller, other larger. A set of needles. Swedish or Swiss military....something like that. Olive drab pouch.
My question is....is it OK to use something like that? It was pretty cheap, but it looks like quality medical equipment. Plus, can I successfuly sterilize it myself? ( I think you're supposed to boil the syringes) Any thoughts?

Thanks bros.

i also have some crazy ass looking hypodermic needles and glass syringes. cool looking, i got them from a chemical plant. but i would definitly not try to use them. i would just frame them and hang them in the family room.

Needles are cheap enough to buy new ones each time. If you cant afford them then you cant afford to juice. Just spend a couple bucks and know that your doing it safe.

Imo I Would Use Individually Wrapped Pins...leave The Kit In Your Closet

Do NOT use this. boiling does not destroy all bacteria. Only an autoclave can. Buy pinz.
