Edit: I removed this post, as obviously, it can easyly lead to misinterpretations by people with higher post counts than mine, and lead to a thorough flaming which im not entirely sure i deserved. Appologys to us-softers, i was fully aware of all the red tape bull *beep* you have had to deal with with regards to shipping gas. I clearly havent been around long enough to make a sarcastic remark purely in jest.

And for god sake, i was just joking! flamed.gif

I believe this is news as there was some kind of ban on (the shipping of?) 134a in the US?

Yes, DazJW, unlike ianhaz, seems to have more intelligence than a retarted lab rat. If any of you have been browsing the forums without paperclips holding your eyes shut, you have probably noticed that US regulators have cracked down on our gas and halted shipment of it. For a while, no gas could be bought online. A couple months ago, DOT-approved green became available. 134A hasn't been on sale since now. That's why this thread is up. Ianhaz, I'll explain this in terms you can understand.

DER WUZ NO GAS BUT NOW DER IS SO IZ GUD BECUZ WE CAN GET IT ON TEH INTERWABZ LOL!!!


What the hell? Whats with the full on personal attack? I didnt mean to be offensive or (obviously) to sound stupid. I knew all of this you seem to believe i didn't, and just figured it didnt effect you yanks that much, as i assumed you'd all be running green anyway as your field limits are way higher than ours....jeese

i can see why newbies find it hard to settle in here on arnies, because apparently you can only joke if you have a post count of higher than 1000, otherwise you just get layed into if you even so much as drop one sarcastic remark.

I say screw it and buy an AI Duster Adapter. Better in so many ways.

Only problem is I've noticed now that more duster cans have some sort of bittering agent in them, which makes them pretty much unuseable*.

Yep, and besides PE now that's the only way to get it. I'm not sure exactly how poweredge became able to ship it, but I won't argue.

Speedytoys.com never stopped shipping it...

I recently (within the last 3 weeks) picked up some red gas and 134a from them. I believe they used fedex to ship it.

Since it is spelled "unusable." wink.gif

Edit: Then SpeedyToys is/was breaking DOT regulations and can get in a lot of trouble.

Well if Fedex knowingly accepted it as a pressurized container not complying with DOT regulations Fedex would be to blame.
But if Speedy is like most airsoft retailers they just back it and ship it without stating it is gas they get the kick in the pants.
