Almost all of the 1cc syringes I've ever used are like that. Most of them don't have the Luer Lock, just the Luer slip like that one above has. I think the only syringes that I used that I couldn't remove the needle from were the insulin syringes. The only thing I don't like too much about the Luer slip is that when I'm pushing them into Clave ports, I have to push pretty hard and hope that the spring in the port doesn't push the syringe back out. When dealing with those types of needleless ports, I much prefer the Luer Lock because you just push in and twist...
Well I'll be damned.
It doesn't look like it would fit but it does.

1 cc needles are like unicorns around here...I hear rumors of sightings on occasion, but they're never substantiated by evidence.

It's actually not at all difficult to read the 1/10th cc markings on a 3cc syringe. Even when I'm doing small peds and am giving plenty of meds in volumes of less than 1 ml, I rarely use a syringe smaller than 3cc.

Dats what we got as well and usually this works. We have needle ports too.

Shall we play a Funeral March for you?
Actually I walked down the isle to the imperial march. Heard at least one person say, "she's actually doing it!" I would be surprised if its already on youtube.

Thank goodness for chocolate, it's 2 a.m,, I am snug as a bug in bed getting awesome pleasure ... from eating chocolate, why? Well firstly because my schedule is so messed up that I do not live human hours and secondly, it's the only kind of pleasure I am going to get because of number one!
Chocolate, you saved the day again!
Never mind CPR classes and automatic defibrillators everywhere, there needs to be a massive investment in chocolate!

I was thinking more of dazzling them with a peacock-like display of color, maybe hitting them with some pheromones...it's always best to go natural lol
