this is in the faq's, but since you're having a hard time, this isn't discussed 4 times a week, and i'm in a good mood, don't shoot with anything less than a 1" pin unless it is a particularly small muscle. like front delts, calves, or tris.

sorry for the dumb question but is a 3/4" over 1"?

What??? haha... no. 3/4" is three quarters of an inch, thus less than one inch (1")

dont say. i know what im doing. just confused with the needle sizes.

**ratmonkey** · 02-19-2009, 05:22 AM

apparently you're also confused by 3rd grade math.

Dude - I can promise you a fair amount of pain if you don't go in deep enough with most UG crap out there.

Personally, I don't know these things from experience. I have a good friend who is enhanced and has told me about his pinnings.

1" for quads is ok IF YOU ARE LEAN. AND, Go in all the way with a nice slow drop on the plunger.

IF you're a fat ass, you better get longer pins.

And honestly, not to pile on here bro, if you don't know that 3/4 is less than 1, please do not do this. There are other opporunties along the course of your endeavor that will totally **** you up if you can't handle basic arithmatic.... not to be an ass...just looking out.

3/4 will work for front delts, tris and bi's if your lean. I use 1 inchers but I never go in all the way with the inj sites I listed.

Dude go to Walmart or call ahead and have them order you a box of pins...it'll cost you like $15 for 100.

It's not too bad...just gotta have a steady hand.

Sometimes if I'm a little shakey it sucks though.

metallicide · 02-19-2009, 09:21 AM

yea i get kinda shakey, but im gettin better lol.

thanks alot for ur answers boyz. i know it was a ****ed up question. the reason i ask is because i saw the 5/8 needles and was like what the fuuck. and thay are really small. i think i will go with the 1 1/2 inch needles. with the drawing is it ok to use the 21g 1 1/2"?

Yeah you can draw with that. I wouldn't go any lower tho because it'll start chewing up the rubber stopper on the vial. I'm doing 23g for drawing and injecting this round

I use 1" 23g on my quads and I am not the leanest person, about 15% BF right now, and they go in plenty deep enough, but I actually have some quads to be injecting in to.

a lot of people don't like it but I personally like to use 5/8 inch on the calf, perfect inject like every time.

yeah thats the reason i wont go lower. some of the other guyz were using 18g for drawing and a guy was saying its to big to the point were u start getting little pieces of rubber in ur vial.

Yeah and that is nooo good. Don't want to accidentally inject those little bits into your muscle...

What I do is angle in with the 18ga, kind of pushing down a little so the long end of the taper slides in, clearing a path. It's not fool proof, but it seems to work. I've never had a problem. But an 18ga needle is large. When I try to draw with a 23ga, I have problems. It seems to take forever.
