AR-R is GTG, but the last time I ordered pins from them they were shipping pins from Tuermo and those absolutely suck ass from my experience. I have recevied Tuermo pins from three different vendors and every batch I've purchased has sucked ass, so it's not like I got a few bad pins from AR-R. It's not AR-R's fault. I just simply won't use pins from Tuermo again. For me it's BD or nothing.

ive only ever used tuermo pins of all sizes and have found them to be most reliable...i love how they twist on so they never slip off and ive never had one break so i think there great imho....what exactly is it you dont like about them im curious?...

The plunger is sticky compared to the smoothness of BDs and the needle sharpness has varied WILDLY from pin to pin. In my last batch of 25 I had about 10 that were pretty dull and had to apply ridiculous force to get them to penetrate my skin -- they were like pencil tips. Others were fine. The consistency and QC for the BDs has been excellent. The "luer-lock" feature is not exclusive to the Terumo. BD has it, too, and needles designed for luer-lock work fine from one brand to another. Nipro has a similar design, too, but I've never used their needles.

*looks like I butchered the spelling of the needle in question. It's terumo.*

Yeah I agree with you on that one bro. All I've used is Terumo on both my cycles but now that I think about it, the plunger is always sticking on me.. However, I have syringes and then seperate tips. I use the tips already on the syringes for drawing and pull out a fresh tip for pinning and usually it has seemed that the tips packaged alone are much sharper than the ones already on the syringe, but that's just my experience.

[Epic Ed]

To clarify -- I draw with an 18ga pin and inject with the one that came with the syringe, so any plunge into the muscle is done with a fresh, never used needle. I've used the 23ga and 25ga and really don't have a preference.

They are a board sponsor. I would bet they are good at what they do.

Yeah, well, they don't make the needles or syringes. I have been plenty happy with AR-R's products and service, but the pins and syringes they have available are from a company that is simply "cheap". I'd happily pay more for higher quality pins if they carried them.

[Far from massive]

I agree completely with the BD syringes being worth the extra money. I just had a buddy talk me into buying a box of 100 syringes and needles since he already had a package coming, they were Excel and they sucked ass. The Luer Lock tips leak air, get stuck on the body ( they bind so bad that you can not unscrew them by hand you have to use the cover) the plungers stick and leak air when trying to pull a strong vacuum, and don't even think about trying to attach a syringe filter to one....

The same with Teurumo, junk, junk, junk.

Just like Thomas Jefferson said so long ago,

Give me BD or give me death!

Or maybe it was "Liberty"

I believe Patrick Henry said that.
