Are you confused about the difference between the colours and types of Nuprol gas? You can now choose between Green, Red, Black or White Nuprol Airsoft Gas, but which one is best for your airsoft guns? In this article, we will look at the difference between the airsoft gas available and hope to give you the information you need to make the correct choice.
Let’s first start with a brief mention about Nuprol. Today there are many different manufacturers of airsoft gas around the world and at JBBG we regard Nuprol as one of the leading brands.
NUPROL GREEN GAS 2.0
Green Gas is referred to in the world of airsoft as the standard for all guns. Every instruction manual you read talks about green gas. Essentially green gas is propane gas with silicone to keep moving parts functioning. This Nuprol green gas bottle is slightly larger than its predecessors with cleaner propane gas and silicone contents internally. It will boost your FPS whilst keeping everything running smooth and clean. An excellent all year round gas. A must for any GBB (gas blowback) pistol, Airsoft carbine and other gas devices.

- Add up to 20+ shots over using normal gas
- High performance – more concentrated propane and higher quality silicone oil over previous gas
- Higher quality silicone lubricant inside
- Fights corrosion
- Prevents rust
- CFC free
- Protective pre-dust cover
- Metal nozzle to prevent damage in transit
NUPROL RED GAS 3.0
Red Gas from Nuprol is designed for cold, wet damp weather conditions, perfect for the UK! If you airsoft through the winter then you should give this red gas ago. Compared to the NUPROL 2.0, you can expect to see more consistent FPS between each shot but also end up with a higher FPS reading at the end of your magazine. This gas is not recommended for hot days but as previously mentioned is great on those wet, cold and miserable days.

NUPROL BLACK GAS 4.0
Black Gas has been designed to deliver higher pressure. This gas is perfect for airsoft players who use gas blowback weapons and rifles in the winter and who’s guns are starting to feel the cold. Each bottle is constructed from strong alloy and contains 300g (2L) of pressurised gas. The nozzle is long and is constructed from metal, giving a better fit into gas valves on your magazines. Due to the power of this gas, it is recommended that you do not use it with gas blowback guns with polymer/plastic slides as it can damage them.
