Did you already open the plastic seal on your 40mm filter?

>not retarded
>bought a gasmask

I didnt buy it. It was my dads, not sure where he got it. he is a veteran though.

Not sure where that would be, but i sure dont see any plastic on it.

There's either a little pop out cap covering the hole on the bottom, or the filter is sealed in a can.

That's Israeli. If you really want to use this mask you better buy new filters. Even if those are not expired (they have an expiration date printed on, usually) since you opened the filter, it can't be 100% trusted. A neat trick you can do is puff on a cigarette through the filter to see how good it still works.

Check expiration date.

I got an idea. Spray a room full of body spray or air freshener. Don't allow circulation.

Enter the room, and if you're not hacking to death, you should be fine.

Please advise that these things do have expiration dates.

(OP)

Filter is old and scratched up. Don see exparatino date but the thing says the following:

Zivilisschutzfilter 68

70/3474

Im gonna go out on a limb here and say that the mystery has been solved: its either expired or unusable

Than/k/s

That's a WWII German gas mask, which the Israelis copied. Consider it usable for costume purposes only, and the filter likely contains chromium, and asbestos, so don't inhale through it.

duly noted anon. I thought it was german too
