A couple times I've sprayed liquid propane directly onto my skin for up to a quarter/half second, it feels like it burned but its just the nerves, there was no damage what so ever. I've never heard of people burning themselves.

Whether a GBB works on propane with a stock plastic slide or not seems to be random. I've heard of people getting thousands if not tens of thousands of rounds out of stock plastic GBB's that are commonly known to be weak and break easily on propane (M9 series, glock series.) I have also heard of people breaking guns better capable of handling propane breaking right away (P226, deagle), it all depends if the plastic is flawed or not, a crap shoot essentially. If it does break it just cracks a piece off, worst case scenario the mag vents out the top so you get a little jet of gas, nothing too serious so just get a GBB and use it till she breaks unless you have the spare cash/want the realism of a metal gun right away.
