you want a 14 guage blunt tip. the lower the number gauge the bigger the needle hole. 18 gauge or so work find with PG. make sure you have both sizes. you don't want to try and add .1ml using a 14 ga tip. I think I got mine from MomandPops. good luck
any of the varietys of syringes out there will work as long as the needle fits the tip of syringe. I have some I got at a pharmacy that do not work because the tip is too big. I figured i'll be doing this awhile so bought glass syringes, 1ml 2ml and 5ml. I think the name of the company was Northern Technology. They sell singles whereas most site sell by the box.
if you warm up the VG in a warm water bath, it will improve its ability to be sucked up with a syringe. just place the bottle in warm water for a little while. that, combined with a lagre gauge needle and youre off to the races.
I would be interested in a glass syringe with a big fat needle can you post a link. I'm not sure what needle size I have, but VG will not suck up.
Size of syringe is not important (although a ONE MIL is exclusively for flavor concentrates), the gauge of the blunt tip needle is for VG.
14 gauge is what you need. I don't "heat up" pg, vg or nic.

One of the biggest available, here the needles are pink, available from chemists, which fits all normal syringes, not the screw on type though. Also, really essential, lots of patience 
Otherwise, depending on the situation, I suck it into the syringe without the needle on it, then put it on, if necessary, afterwards.
Also, when I buy VG at the chemists I thin it down with distilled water, by 10% or more, as is done by the vape Shops that sell it.

nttworldwide.com = northern technology and testing. the syringes are very nice to work with. smooth glide and easy to clean. but, they do not sell blunt tips. they offer a couple links to buy needles but I think many vendor sites carry them. just make sure you get a 14ga blunt tip.
I dilute my VG 10% Distilled Water when it comes in the door. I use 14ga for large amounts and 17ga on small stuff. My juice mixes are PG35/VG65 or PG30/VG70. 1 1/2" or 2" long, they'll get to the bottom of a 30ml bottle. I have 5 each of 1, 3, 6, 12 ml syringes and 2 30ml. 1ml and 6ml get used the most with 17ga 11/2" needles. Any bigger the juice just flows out all on its own. Does it even with a 17ga but I can pull anything with it. 17 gauge needle is going to hold about .5 to .75 ml in the tube. I allow for that. I do all my mixing with syringes only.
