Im hitting my delts and quads with an insulin pin, do you think its getting IM or would it be considered subq?

If you are lean, and using 1/2" pins, then yeah, at least close enough to IM. If some leaks subq, it isn't the end of the world.

Of course there are different insulin needle lengths, but in general, an insulin pin will be de facto subcutaneous whether you pinch up the skin for "subq" or shove straight in for IM.
