Harm Reduction (IV) I can't hit the veins in my hand?

Thats because the needle-tip is bigger thus wider thus liquid flows quicker.

Yes, but what I'm saying is the 28g blue-tipped rigs I get here in Portugal seem to be slower to register and push off than the 28g or even 30g BD/generics I would get from the States. Make sense? Obviously with a 25g it's even faster, but the 28g here seem to be different than those in the States, it almost feels like a 31g cause at times it can be really slow to push off (and I'm talking with the needle properly inside the vein, not a missed shot or an artery or anything).
Maybe the fact that they're detachable instead of the "all-in-one" non-detachable syringe/needles that are common in the US has something to do with it...but I doubt it.
 
Jesus christ that needle is way to big, I use 31g in hands....
