short answer= no

long answer: it's highly toxic and you'll only get about 5 shots out of a mag so nope..it;'s not worthwhile.

And god man..propane can be got anywhere...

Also MAPP tends to be a good bit more expensive than propane, which negates the biggest advantage of switching over to propane from green gas in the first place.... Cost

I asked this question last year, Dex said no. The behaviour of MAPP is too different.

I would have thought they're all toxic though, maybe some more than others.
