A fantastic option.

The nice thing about propane is that it comes in DOT-approved containers and has a safety tracer added so you can smell the stench if your canister or magazine starts to leak. Green Gas is...
Well, just don't leave it in the sun too long.
You can generally expect a higher FPS rating than with conventional Green Gas, due in large part to the fact that "Green" gas is NOT Propane, but actually, R134-A coolant gas. The term "Green" comes from the fact that R134A is both environmentally safe and safe for fragile, plastic-gut guns.
Green Gas is not flammable, as propane is. Green Gas also contains silicone lubricants so you don't have to add any into the fill-valve of the magazine.
However, propane is dramatically cheaper, and generally improves the performance of any AirSoft gas pistol over conventional Green Gas.
Do NOT use this in any Maruzen sub-machineguns, stock Tokyo-Marui pistols with plastic slides, or any gun that takes a magazine made from plastic, as you will likely damage the seals in the mechanism, maybe even blow-open the expansion chamber and destroy your gun. Highly recommended for KJW pistols, KWA/KHC pistols and sub-machineguns, and any WE product.
