A MIG welder can be used without the gas. You change the wire from solid core to flux core and can weld like an arc welder but with greater precision.

Gas for MIG welding is typically ARGON or ARGON/CO2 depending on the material being welded.

The gas shield not only "shields" the weld bead from inputities but it reduces welding"spatter" dramatically as well. (Looks way better when you're done!)
