Bosconian91 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Anyone here uses Duster Gas (as opposed to Propane or Green Gas) successfully? I purchased a six pack duster gas from COSTCO to try it on 3 different pistols and it didn't work. I could only take 2 shots before the air leaks. I'm using Airsoft Innovations' Duster Gas adapter for this. I tried it on these pistols (all with metal slide): - WE Hi Capa - KSC Glock 19 - KWA Glock 18C All pistols work perfectly with Propane. I just want to try Duster Gas as an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use 134a freon from Walmart on my Japanese made Western Arms SVI knock-off with no problems. If I try to use freon in my WE Hi-Capa, it don't work.

Bosconian91 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 You may be right. Perhaps the seals need more pressure in order to work well. About how many shots can you get using 134a per charge? I may just get a different gun so I can use these duster cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adkins Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Most sights will say what gas to use in a certin gun, redwolf airsoft, Airsoft extream, or airsoft smith.the 134 is the weaker stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huesos Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 If you are getting leaks upon filling it is because you are not adding a drop of silicone oil to the plastic tube on the duster gas can prior to filling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MQW Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 GUys, please ref. the comments on "134a" gas on the 134a adapter question in this forum, that stuff can really mess you up, should reconsider using it.
