i know im not dressing your question, but mustard gas is skin contact, so good luck with only a gas mask

>>31588643
If it comes to chem warfare you are fucked no matter what you use.
But whatever makes you feel safe.

Except you only partially responded to my question. Let me ask it again to you. Tear gas is very commonly used in riot control situations, is this mask fully covered for those chemicals?

>>31588671
>tear gas
I thought a basic bitch full face 3M mask with the right filters can suffice?

>>31588643
just wrap a rag have someone piss all over your face m8

Didn't know /K/ was this autistic.

Any full mask with a good seal is gtg, you should worry more about using the correct filter.
For CS gas, a 2-liter, rug and urine will do.
For exploded chem plant you want the filter according to what is produced and gtfo.
For exploded reactor or nukes you want a particle and reactor filter along with the weather forecast and a radiometer.
For fires you want a rebreather or respirator.
For chemical weapons you want the biggest, bestest filter along with a proper crbn suit, decon team, crbn detectors, autoinjectors... aka don't be there.

If its for common irritants and chems, get an assortment of filters. Thats the key here. If you are really worried, get an SCBA with an extra tank or two and appropriate suit. I dont know much about the right kind of suit to wear, but SCBA is basically scuba gear without the underwater considerations.

Basically all military filters will protect you from cs gas, you're good there. Other than that, see above.

If you have money I recommend an AVON C50 with EZ AIR PAPR setup.Not low vacuum rated like SCBA is but at that point you only have as much air as the tank holds left to live anyways. system costs around 1200.00 and is the lightest positive pressure system out there. If your running and gunning,then you want breathing assistance otherwise you will collapse from sweat and exhaustion alone. How do I know this try MOPP 4 Red for 12 hrs in the middle of a 110 degree flightline. Always pick comfort when it comes to gas masks.

>>31588643
IF the filter is in a SEALED pouch and everything else checks out you MAY be okay with this purchase. buyer beware,OP.

I always wonder in these kinds of threads how many people give thought to detection or decon.

Protective gear doesn't work if you don't wear it, and without proper detection gear, you won't know to put it on.

Without decon setups you won't be able to take your gear off without contaminating yourself.

>>31588643
Why are you lumping tear gas and mustard gas in the same sentence?

>>31588765
Oh my sweet, sweet summerchild.

When cholrine gas was first introduced in World War One a piss covered cloth was the only way effective way to prevent inhalation since gas masks had yet to be introduced.

Get a basic 3m civilian respirator with a mask and you're good to go. Filters for them are generally a lot more common and standardized so they're better for shtf.

What you're looking for is called a Level A suit, which is the full body/fully enclosed type. They suck to wear though and good luck getting of of you by yourself without getting contaminated

I'll stick with my GP-5.
