Hey guys
When I shoot oil based ASA I always remove the needle fron the barrel of the syringe and install a fresh one for injection as the first one is dulled by pushing it through the rubber stopper especially if your drawing from multiple vials.

So does anyone do this for sub q injections? All the HCG I see around these days are in vials as well as HGH.

I see one of our sponsers stocks removable pins in 27 gauge. I am wondering if anyone knows where to find removable pins in 29 gauge.

A slin pin (29 g or more) is so fine & sharp that ONE dip through a rubber stopper should not noticeably dull the point. Despite the fact that a microscope would reveal that considerable dulling does indeed occur, most of us still find injecting afterwards easy & smooth. No need to switch the pin on a slin pin.
