I should clarify: I'm using the short needle for abdomen (anywhere between front and side). Anything longer meant injecting at an angle, which I didn't like.
And I'm "average" build (5'11", 175-ish pounds)... I can't imagine how someone who's particularly lean/built would manage an 8mm needle (shortest I've been able to find in Kansas) in the arm.
