Injecting - what is swiy's prefered needle gauge

[chadchadchad]

swiy's prefered needle gauge and any other nifty info?

[nomadhocrat]

SWIM prefers the ultra-fine and micro-fine ultra comfortable 28-30 gauge insulin needles...the smaller the gauge the less damage to the dermis around injection site and the vein inside

preferably 1 cc

Man , just your 1ml from the local supermarket does swim 4 the brown..

However 2ml syringe (sometimes) better for soaking up lumpy Crack..

Please rate my posts

i would use a 3cc and a 27 gage needle

[Junkhead23]

1ml ultra fine work fine for SWIM

[piggyinthemiddle]

0,33mm. (29G) These are the orange capped insulin syringes, available in 1ml and 0.5 ml. The 1ml ones seem to be the most appropriate size for shooting drugs.

SWIM almost always uses 1ml 28G insulin syringes although he always has a couple of 2ml barrels with slightly larger seperate pins, i think they are 26G but not sure as swim cant be bothered to go look but finds the larger rigs better sometimes for getting into some tricky spots on his arms when all his usual sites are out of action...

[infekt]

1/2cc short tip

[Zendo]

2.7g and 3ml syrynge, (swim only shoot's OC or MST)

swiy should not be sad for never having tried h.

21G/one and half inches long Green guy. SWIM needs those big guys for the groin.... sigh.

The local exchange program have just stopped these big needles so SWIM will have to try and order some from the chemist.

If only SWIM looked after SWIMs veins in SWIMS arms all those years back instead of hitting up every bit of powder SWIM could get SWIMS hands on.... some of those combinations were insane(10ml barrel with 6 Dexxies, 2 Rohypnol, couple of Tunal and 100mg(2*50mg amps) of methadone. Whatever we had just went in.... coke, speed, once even a E(never again), tablets, everything.... even the vodka sometimes. What a stupid kid SWIM was.... to show for it 2 massive holes in groins, and one or two health problems.

Good job works are free in the UK, we used to take a full career bag back every couple of days.

A box of 100 27G needles costs just 4 Euro, and the same for a box of 100 1cc syringes. The needle syringe 29/30G combo's are a bit more expensive though, 20 for a box of 100 of the 1cc ones.

swim prefers 30 gauge 1cc short tips, work like a charm i hear..

[Psych0naut]

My monkey uses the same ones, they barely leave any trackmarks, and make his veins last much longer.

[JaWill88]

swim did use 28/29 guage (preferably 28) 5/16 inch 1cc insulin syringes for the black or black and white. anything smaller like 30 would just clog up too easily with the tar. fortunately for swim personally he doesn't do it anymore.

[dyingtomorrow]

We can only get 1cc spikes OTC here, which sucks, cuz obviously SWIM would prefer to be able to jack more heroin at once.

Preferred is 30-31 gauge, short tip.

All SWIMs arm and wrist veins are long gone, and those give the best rush by far. SWIM found out a while back that with the 30-31 gauge short tips that he could shoot the veins in his fingers and palms, still get the good rush, and they regenerate super fast. Just gotta always use sharp ones, otherwise it fucks your veins up and hurts like a bitch.
