Gas blowback guns live or die by their seals. Every fill and every shot works the o-rings inside the magazine and the valve, and a gas without enough silicone in it dries those seals out until the magazine starts venting rather than firing.
V6 Pro carries silicone in the mix, so lubrication happens every time you charge a magazine rather than only when you remember to put a drop on the fill valve. Over a season that is the difference between magazines that keep sealing and magazines that need rebuilding.
It is a standard green gas suitable for the great majority of gas blowback pistols and rifles. If your gun specifies a lower-pressure gas — some plastic-slide pistols do — check before filling, and consider a low-power gas instead.

Good to know before you buy
Some pistols with plastic slides are rated for a lower-pressure gas — check your manual before filling, and use a low-power gas such as Nuprol White if in doubt. Gas performs poorly in the cold, so keep magazines warm in winter rather than blaming the gun.
Frequently asked questions
Will it work in my pistol?
It suits the great majority of gas blowback pistols and rifles. If yours specifies a low-pressure gas — common on plastic-slide pistols — use a lower-power gas instead.
Do I still need silicone oil?
Far less often. The silicone in the gas lubricates the seals on every fill, though an occasional drop on the fill valve does no harm.
Why does my gun shoot worse in winter?
Green gas loses pressure as it gets cold. Keep spare magazines in an inside pocket and rotate them rather than leaving them in a bag on the ground.
How is it different from red or black gas?
Those are higher-pressure gases for colder weather or guns rated for them. Green is the standard everyday fuel.
