Re: Is it safe to use propane?
yes I have just got into propane and it seems to work great and no problems have come up yet. as at the end of the day it is the same a green gas but without the silicon oil which you just have to add yourself

Propane is no different from green gas, only that propane has no silicone in it.
Is the m9 a full metal version

+1 on the above.
Metal or plastic it shouldnt be too much of a problem, if it is plastic just be careful when its a hot / warm day

Re: Is it safe to use propane?
I have the AI Adapter and i use colemans propane. I cant say where you can get them from as its against the rules but a quick google should help you there
As for maintainence gas, thats a standard practice if you want to keep your seals in good shape. But you must add 2 drops of silicone to every 10 mags at a min

Propane is much cheaper than buying green gas although they are the same, and 1.1l of green gas only contains 450ml's of propane, they con you just go buy some colemans propane.

Re: Is it safe to use propane?
The only downside is it makes your gun smell like fart!
section 24 of the 1968 Act
Supplying imitation firearms to minors
1)It is an offence for a person under the age of eighteen to purchase an imitation firearm
2)It is an offence to sell an imitation firearm to a person under the age of eighteen.
