Has anyone tried using everyday propane in their gas blow back gun?

if i had a adaptor, i would use it all the time, but the thing to do is use propane, then run green through once or twice after like 500- shots to lube the inside...i have 2 cans ill sell for like $3.

propane works fine unless it is cold out side...then it is worthless

I'm sure there is a review on here somewhere or a post. Try a search.

then why does my WA on a cold day run on green but won't run on propane? if green gas is propane then why are there no shipping restrictions on it, like there is on propane?

I must agree with Tkschnee43. Green Gas AKA HFC22 is chlorodifuloromethane and propane is well propane.

I looked at the percentage of gas that's in the coleman tank versus green gas. If green gas is household propane than the amount of each chemicals should be identical. However it is not. My WA does not like to propane as much as it does green gas in cold either. P226 works fine on either. And nothings "sticking" either.

well, i have a propane adaptor so i filled one mag w/propane and another w/green. i couldn't tell the difference. mind you, this was w/my G17, keep that in mind if it makes a difference. I will run propane durring the games and then fill my mags w/green to store them. remeber, always put some silicon in the top of the propane can before you put on the adaptor.

This was not a sales pitch. I was only looking for real airsoft users who actually use the product and whether it was worth the investment.
