Luer lock caps for filling syringes

[Malarkey]

I made an order from myfreedomsmokes buying a plunger kit to clean and fill cartos. I have recently been using these components to assist me in my diy efforts. In the kit there is a luer cap that connects to another adapter to fill cartomizers. I am looking for a similar cap that will connect directly to a luer lock syringe to be able to draw liquid from pg/vg bottles to get exact measurements for my liquids. Any information or ideas on how I can accomplish this are welcome and appreciated. Thanks.

I just use luer lock needles. Nude Nicotine sells them for a quarter apiece, other places have packs for varying cost, none are expensive. Any farm supply store has syringes with luer lock needles fairly reasonable (2-3 bucks for packs of 3) and saves you shipping.

1" Luer Lock Blunt Dispensing Needle (5pk) - MyFreedomSmokes.com
It doesn't say what size it is.
You need at least a 14 ga for VG. Even then it's hard. I can't imagine even trying with anything smaller
I get mine from wizard labs and the 14ga is color coded green like the one at MFS that doesn't say what size it is. Dunno if that's a standard color code or not.
Here's the wizardlabs one - 14ga Blunt Tip Luer-Lock Needle 1.5" - Quantity Discounts

I've bought stuff from a farm supply like Blkwdw86 said. No blunt tip needles but its easy to file them off.
Wish I could find an even bigger one 2" long. I've even considered a turkey baster syringe.

I have the MFS Luer-Locks and they are pretty big. Larger than what I've gotten from WL. I'm happy.

Good selection of supplies, nic base, pg, vg, & extracts at Wizard labs. Great prices, fast service, quality stuff. For VG I don't use the needles, to thick and slow for me, I just either stick the end of my 20ml syringe in and fill, or put my finger over the end and pour into it, then stick syringe over flask, put plunger in, and push vg into the flask. Generally just use the blunt nosed needles to measure my flavor extracts and to wrap micro coils. When making large batches of my unflavored nic base, I use a 50ml graduated cylinder to measure the bulk of it, then a syringe to measure the 4.3ml or partial leftover. Check out the DIY section for tips, tricks, and recommended suppliers.

Thanks for all the replies. I have been having decent luck using the 5ml pipettes but I wish they were graduated in smaller increments. I'll do a search around for that, really wish I could find a cap that would work but really I think different pipettes would solve my issue. Then I'll just use the syringes for any minute amount that can't be accounted for from the pipettes.
