Can we have a gas mask thread?
I'm broke as shit but I know that most surplus gas masks are useless to the point of being for cosplay only. Would it be safe enough if I were to buy an *unissued* Israeli civilian gas mask and use sealed NATO filters with it? Not very knowledgeable on the subject.

it would be easier and cheaper to get a good respirator from home depot, they're about on par with the gas masks issued.
Also, does anyone have that infograph of viable gas masks and filters? Guess I accidentally deleted it. Doesn't really answer my question but was important info nonetheless.

True, but... they don't look as cool and no eye protection. I could buy goggles I guess, but still doesn't look neat.
Soviet GP-5, can be had on ebay for $15, beware, filter may or may not cause cancer, I wear mine regardless

Here you go friend.

Cool. I'd prefer to have something that would take NATO filters but I could probably find some non-hazardous ones. That one offers legit pretection?
>>29830329
Thanks bud, that's the one

I think I have a M48 somewhere, and I used it once testing my bob
fuck.

Yeah sure, just don't have long hair or a beard
What's in the M10M filters, and are they safe?
>>29830369
I'm 25 and I can't grow a beard for shit, my new excuse will be that I can't have one with my gas mask. Kek

IIRC later-model GP5s take 40mm filters.
>>29830474
Yeah it looks like it, that's probably what I'll go with
>>29830329
So you're telling me my PBF mask uses cancer filters?
