I received the one from Academic Sports for a Christmas gift. I like it...in fact, I like it better after one of you boys mentioned lubing the O ring with a little olive oil before using.
In fact, I just thought that it might be a good idea to open it up and spray the entire syringe with P_M to lube it a make it easier to clean. A nice bottle brush this size makes that job easier, too.
B T W, with all those holes in the side of the needle, you'd better be careful as you're pulling it out of the meat. How would I know, you ask???
