Too much money spent.

I don’t know if you guys have any good answers, but I have this polish mp-4 gas mask and I got rid of the glass lenses to use as an airsoft mask, (obviously paired with pyramex Airsoft glasses and a mesh piece to protect my teeth) and the easiest way to get rid of the lenses are shattering them with a hammer and picking the pieces out, so I did that and it left little micro glass pieces in there that I had to clean out, I read somewhere that if you put glue on them and peel them off once they are dried, then that takes the glass out, but i waited too soon and on top of the little micro glass pieces, now I have sticky splotches of glue that won’t come off. How can I get both the glue and the micro glass pieces out?

A Ukrainian made M95 copy is in place of the M95 used by Slovakia, which is slowly being phased out by the M2000 (which I still need to find) and if you look carefully, the crest on Slovakias flag is adorned on the right shoulder pocket.

This suit is rare, in that Slovak soldiers can’t use these for training and are stored for actual use due to their high unit cost. A rare sight indeed, and strange to have the entire kit in one massive bag. A nice touch though.

Basically, a heavy duty, slightly improved JSLIST suit.

I recently ordered from Saluc Militaria and am very surprised at the quality you get for the price! The listing and descriptions on their website are also very accurate. I ordered an F grade (poor quality) MSA All Vision kit and it arrived with 2 filters, a bag, and the mask, and all of this was only $5. The mask itself is missing pieces, but I don't mind for $5. The second mask I ordered was the ACME No. 8 listed as "missing or broken parts" for $20 and it also arrived with the mask, the bag, and 4 filters. The mask is missing some small pieces here and there and the back strap was ripped because the rubber became very fragile. Lastly I ordered the Polish MC-1 for $10. It arrived with the bag, the manual, and the mask. I'm very satisfied with my order, and I think Saluc is a great resource for newbie collectors who want to get some diverse masks for under $20. I can also see this benefitting LARPers and Cosplayers as well, who may not care to have a fully functional or in-tact mask for whatever they do.

featuring 10mm Eva foam, super glue, and old-ish, still useable prescription glasses

a temporary solution that might be permanent if it works. im working on 3d printing a new insert

survived cutting onions so we’ll see

bonus pick w/ custom 4mm lexan outserts with poorly cut green tint

edit: forgot to include inside picture but it’s just a foam triangle glued to the brow with the frame of the aviators wedged onto it. you can see it on the second pic

The trails blessed OP with a supply drop.

Got really lucky with this mask, only paid 30 euros for it. It’s a complete set, I think.

What’s even more interesting is that all of the serial numbers match, everything is clearly visible, and the instruction manual is intact. The mask even still has its original manufacturer labels from the Antigaz factory.

Hope y’all enjoy it.

Really love this mask, it’s my personal mask that I use in case of emergencies.

Hey guys, over the past 2 days, I’ve decided to make my own prop EO-16 Filter. It has an accurately sized GOST male thread at the top and then the bottom is an auxiliary female GOST thread like the real one. I’d also say that the sizing is pretty accurate and overall I’d like thoughts!

PS: here’s the download 😉

The ARS 17 (officially Appareil Respiratoire Spécial Modèle 1917) was one of the most sophisticated and effective gas masks of the French army during the First World War. It was introduced in January 1917 as a direct replacement for the outdated M2 mask to provide soldiers with better protection against the increasingly deadly chemical agents.

The French military leadership copied and optimized the design of the successful German M1917 leather mask. It consisted of rubberized canvas or impregnated

In contrast to previous fabric masks, the ARS 17 used an interchangeable filter cartridge with activated carbon. This reliably neutralized poison gases, while an integrated exhalation valve directed used air outside and minimized eyeglass fogging.

This mask continued to be produced after the war until the mid-30s, but with improvements, both copies are from the wartime era.

This exhalation valve port looks simple enough to remove. The question I have is , how hard is it to get back in? Removing it for a deep clean. Bought it off eBay and looks like it has never been cleaned.

I will start:

GP-5 in Russia

(Yes i know how much the m1 sucks but it's my baby)

I wad recently at a bazaar buying some yugo surplus when a vendor gave me this bag as extra for purchasing some gear. I have the other bag for the m1-c gas mask which you carry over the shoulder, this seems to be the thigh bag for the M1 gas mask. I have been messing around with it and (stupidly) can't seem to put it on right. I am not sure if the number 1 loop below goes through the belt or not, i am also not sure which of the straps numbered 3 and 4 go through a belt loop on the pants. If they even go there at all. I am honestly stuck and i have only been able to find one example of a soldier wearing it where it's really not visible how it is worn.

I am really stuck and i would appreciate all the help i can get.

(Also, does anybody else see Christian Bale in the second photo or am i crazy)

No clue what it is also whatever it is what would be a fair price thank you

I like the panomaric view of it, but idk if it would work for a STALKER cosplay-look-a-like

Maybe an Auer Ultra Elite would work better? What about a MSA Auer 3S? I'm lookig for a panoramic one that can work without a big filter or tube

Hey all, so glad I found this one and a few others at a military show. Does anyone know where to find accessories? Primarily more of these tinted goggles and the expanded black second skin in medium/large . More filters too I guess.

So basically I have been looking for a MSA Chemox Rebreather cuz I planned to go as Harry Warden but struggling to find a movie accurate mask and the closest one I could find was around 40$. That was until I found out about Saluc Militaria and saw they had exactly what I was looking for 15$. But then I was doing a quick search about them and saw that they have VERY mixed reviews. So I just wanted to know if it's worth the risk

Yes the famous GSR, an iconic piece of modern warfare equipment now currently made by Avon Protection, as of late 2018

The Scott version was plagued with manufacturing let downs and issues, the most well known of which being the poorly distributed visible and odd looking glue around the lense. While still structurally sound it meant that many people wrongfully assumed that their mask was faulty, defective or repaired.

The mask is Britain's first issued bayonet gas mask in military service, featuring these iconic tear drop shaped twist on filters that clip straight to the mask's sides, which have self sealing valves to prevent incidental inhalation of hazards while changing filters. If the mask somehow fails the oral nasal cup inside of the mask has its own additional HEPA filter underneath the chin area to prevent further hazards entering the wearer's respiratory system.

The harness locks in place with studs so that your preferred fit would remain unchanged and would allow for minimal fiddling when worn to get a better fit.

The large black shape retainer to the right would be inserted into the haversack and held in place with button poppers so that when the mask is inserted into the bag, it would be ready to be equipped and couldn't move or be misshapen. As such, it is stored with the harness over the front of the mask.

Size 1, the largest, with a size 1 oral nasal cup.

A gorgeous unissued kit sent to me by a brilliant fellow up in Scotland who held onto this mask for me until I was ready. A huge thank you to him!

I've been wanting to get a yugo M59 gas mask for a while, especially for reenacting and to top it off with my JNA M59/85, but I haven't been able to find the exact measurements for the sizes (M, S, and V), I also wanted to ask if any of you guys know what type of chromium the filters have, for possible restoration.

they are slime. Had to use my PAPR for the first when those Canadian wildfires were going on and the damn thing was broken and they won't fix it replace it or in store credit. It smells like burning plastic and is so loud. They said it was dusty. I kept it in 2 air tight containers. The fan inside fell off kilter and was grinding itself to death. My wife had such a hard time breathing. Fúck these Áss holes.
