    site says that have 23g 1.5inch <3cc....need help

    just wondering if the <3cc is a problem. I need 2cc's so i wasnt sure how much this syringe would hold?

    My plan is to use these to draw, and then another if im doing a glute shot, but if a quad shot then i will draw and then change to a 25g 1 inch...sound good.

    Its just going to be a 3cc syringe. They just list them as such because you shouldnt run an entire 3cc's in a syringe. Ive ordered them like that before and they were 3cc syringe's. By the way, what are you shooting?

    23Guage?

    not sure i understand the problem.. but i'd go with the 1 1/2 inch in the glutes or quads for sure.. IMO.. i have read though countless times here that 25 gauge is a great pin for injection, just not to draw anything up...

    You're good to go bro. The syringe will hold 3cc, but it'll only be 2/3 full (or so)

    Yep just swap the pin out after drawing, you're on the right track.

    Definitely 1.5 either place, but come on, 25 gauge? Seriously, just be a man and stick yourself. Use a 22 gauge in the glute, and bump up to a 23 in the quad if youre scared. But there's really no need for a 25 in either of those muscles. No need really to switch needs before injecting either. pushing through that little rubber doesnt dull the needle that bad. Switching all those pins is just a waist of money IMO.

    switching to a new pin definitely is worth it!!!!!! I have done it both ways, and I was amazed at how dulled the rubber stopper on a vial makes a pin. Now I always switch, and pins are like 4 bucks for a hundred so who cares??

    I never use 1-1/2" in the quads only 1" and also the delts. I also use 25ga as it goes in nice and slow which works well for me.

    I definitely switch needles. With the amount of money I spend on gear and anti-e's, wasting money on needles is hardly a concern.

    i switch needles also, they are the cheapest part of your cycle. And yes, the rubber stopper does dull the needle. Anything to make my injection smoother, i will do it. It is also more sterile to switch needles. I paid like $17 for 100 needles.

    I use a 22 1.5 for glutes, and a 23 1inch for everything else (quads, delts, tris), and yes switching the needle is a must IMO, the sharper the pin the less scar tissue that will form and it is more sterile IMO.

    Looks good bro, the smallest guage pin you can get away with the better.
