    Cool Amp opener required?

    I have glass amps of Test E and was wondering if i will need an amp opener or if it's possable to just break the amp at the top and insert the pin.
    Thanks in advance.

    i use a sharpie pen cap.it fits perfect in the cap and only the top that is being snapped off it sticking above the cap. i just grag the top of the ampule with a paper towel and snap off real quick.

    An amp opener is superior to cracking it. Trust me, when you use an amp opener you will never have any glass shards or cracking amps.

    Use the snap method for now, but look into the opener. They are 6 bucks for christ's sake.

    I have never used an amp opener. Bic pen cap for me. Never had a problem, ever.

    Bic pen cap works remarkably well if U don't push it down all the way onto the amp.
