I just opened a new box. When it originally came, I looked, and the caps looked grey. *sigh* i tucked the box away for use. I pulled out the first needle last night, and noticed when I was preparing it, that the cap was not the same color as the stopper inside. it was just darker. The plastic white cap that covers the rubber cap, makes it hard to tell grey/black and so on. I spun the color around, and compared it to the stopper inside, and yep! its darker! I opened an old one that was laying around, and yep! its smaller. didnt look a whole lot smaller, but you could still tell.

I held it against my skin, and pushed. I normally have to punch on it a bit, as I have very tough skin. I was impressed! it slid right in! wooo hooo!

It took a few seconds longer to unload the syringe, but WORTH IT! I will take the extra few seconds, over that hard punch from the old needle anyday!

So, YES! they do exist. I did get mine. I hope you do too.
