I ordered several syringes from Johnson Creek Smoke juice, cost about $2.50 apiece for 3ml size with sharp needle tips. They work well.
Accessories - 3mL Syringe With Needle (20 gauge)

Heaven's Gifts also offers them now, however, in 5ml size with blunt tips, for $0.75 apiece.
5ml e-juice injector with safe blunt 18G needle - E-juice Injector - Wholesale & Retail Best E-smoking Supplier

When I order more, I'll likely order from HG, along with a bunch of other supplies to make the shipping and wait worthwhile.

On the flipside, you could also check out grocery stores and "home furnishing" stores, like Bed Bath & Beyond and such, and ask for a marinade injector kit. If you find one with a needle, that should suffice, but the syringe and the needle will both likely be HUGE by comparison, and that's not good for somewhat more delicate work like this. When you only need half a ml or so at a time, you don't want something that will hold 100ml.

I have bought syringes at two local drug stores. Just went to the pharmacy counter and told them the size I wanted. Even bought the needles separately. Got a 3ml for mixing samples and filling carts. Use a 60ml for mixing larger batches. Don't remember the exact price but it was cheaper than any I had seen in the on line e-juice sites.

My local CVS wouldn't sell me any. Guess I'll just have to stick to online =P

Call a med supply house & ask for a catalog. Just say your name is Dr.____. I've ordered suplies of all types for many years and nobody ever asked to see my degree. I think this is the biggest secret in the med field. I've ordered printed Rx blanks for many yrs. too....yep, no questions asked. I remember that once it just hit me, I rented an office, had signage made, ordered all kinds of equip. and drugs, etc, etc., and no one ever asked any questions....never. Med supply houses are easy. It would be MUCH harder to buy stuff like that on ebay, funny. Dr. G.

Spend the cash up front and get a glass syringe
Syringe, Glass 10cc Reusable - Part #: 5024
the plastic ones lose the markings rapidly.

For needles you want blunts
Dispensing Needles, Blunt, Stainless Steel, Tapered & Applicator TIps, Industrial, Luer Lock
17 or 18 gauge for most finished liquids, filling carts etc.
15 gauge for transporting the thicker VG etc. for mixing.

Simpler over all really, IMHO anyway, to just use droppers and glass calibrated cylinders
10 ml graduated glass cylinder

luck

Thank you! I will be ordering one from this site... I'd rather get a nice glass one that will last me forever.
