B&D 'Ultrafine' syringes vs 'Microfine' syringes

[PhreeX]

Having been through over 1000 syringes, I have found the Ultrafine's to be the best - you get a nice, long 29g needle that makes for *0* marks.. the pluger action is a smooth as can be, and the overall construction is just superb .. but a long time ago I used to like the Microfine's better - I dunna which to go with? No matter what it will be the Becton and Dickson (B&D) brand, as they have NEVER failed (over 1500 shots with NEVER bur) ...
What are your thoughts? Ultrafine or Microfine?
And please, all you needle pussies spare us your "injection is evil" diatribe..

I tried Microfine once, at the suggestion of the local smack-head...
Both packages I bought had two points that each had a 'gusher' <spur> on them...so I quit buying them.
I've yet to have that problem with BD...Maybe I'm just lucky...

Typing doesnt make sense to me at the moment (dont ask) but i think anything above 27 is so small it doesnt matter what you use, you might like longer needles or short ones but thats your preference, it wont make any real difference. I have been using 27g since thats the shortest the 3ml ones came with, it leaves a small track but it goes away quickly.

I've been using gigantic monoject 25 gauge needles for a while (not by choice - i'll switch to BD ultrafines when these run out), but I was wondering if anybody knew where to get sterile water for injection? Preferably I'd like to get the kind of 30ml vials with water+preservative that you could pull up multiple doses of water from and keep in the fridge in the meantime. Also, anyone know where to get syringe filters online?
Finally, totally off topic, but are buprenorphine sublingual tabs bootable?
I hate being a nerd. I live in LA for fuck's sake and I can't find heroin.

definetly B&D 29g ultrafines......the perfect prescription. NO tracks EVER! And only $25 for 100 in mexico.....nice. Yes buprenorphine tabs are bangable....but if you live in LA (that place is flooded with tAR......whats the problem?) just run to mexico...you can get ultra strong buprenorphine solutions (10mg/ml) intended for anesthesia at the ole Veterinaria Farmacia.....made by fort dodge in a 50 ml bottle. Be careful though....one ml could really rock a non-tolerant dude (the sublingual tabs are .2 mg..not 10 mg!!)....but you are better off with the straight agonist diacetyl......much nicer!!

BD 1CC microfine disposable syringes please. Minimal tissue damage, in and out in a flash.
ppestle- I am from Ohio, but I am willing to bet that at the public health clinic in L.A. they hand out needles, sterile water, bleach, clean cookers, cotton, topical antibiotics, You get the idea. They do that for us here in Cleveland, God bless em.

B&D Ultrafine 29 g, 1/2" seem to work best for me. I feel the most control and the most accuracy.

Why don't you use saline solution. It's easy to find.

Go with a 23g 1.5" of the BD Ultrafine... Real men use 23g... Psycopaths use 19g.

Get them direct from the factory for $20/box (100 per box).

I use the 19g one inch suckers....but I am sticking them in my arse cheek though.
I found it too hard using a 23 trying to inject 5cc's of oil.

You can get a box of 100 BD 1cc 29g Ultrafine's for about $21.74 at your local pharmacy - remember, in most states, if you're at least 18, and you have the cash, the phamracist can NOT refuse the sale - sadly this is not something thats enforced, so don't dress like a junkie..
As for the fluid - just ask the pharmacist for saline solution, they have special bottles - costs like $2 for a pint...
