I want a gp4 but it looks so old and frail
Oh well. [img]http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/7500/01012012548.jpg[/img] Done for lulz. Would work tho.
M40 is where it's at
m50 is the new m40 [img]http://www.policeproducts.com/images/images_big/FM53.jpg[/img] i havent been able to find the fm53 version for cheap yet tho
ugh I hate american gas masks the only exception being the MCU2/P
If anyone finds a cheap M40 ($50 or less) online, let me know, I'm looking for one for a HECU kit.

[QUOTE=QQnMarine;34026229]If anyone found that, they'd buy it in a heart beat.[/QUOTE] Ossumsauce said his local surplus store has them at that price. Can't be impossible, besides, I'm patient. I can wait for those once-in-a-blue-moon opportunities.
NBC has been changed CBRN, CBRN= Chemical Biological Radioactive and Nuclear. I don't know why, but the name change was implemented to the army for some apparent reason.

I can wait for those once-in-a-blue-moon opportunities.[/QUOTE] Yeah, if i go out there again i'll jot down the prices, description, and what's included in the pouch. I do remember this though: It looked very close to an M40, i never got a good look at it. It came in a gas mask pouch that said "US Gas Mask M40" on it, or something to that effect. There were 3. That's all i got.
Never used gas mask in game, saw people using it though, how can it be any good? I mean doesn't it limit your view? Well possibly it's just my opinion as I am CQB player, but still. Doesn't it fog up? Or can't the glass just snap and shards go into your eyes? Can't you suffocate in it because of filter? How do you overcome these problems?
Dummy filter, Replace lenses with ballistic lenses, apply anti-fog to lenses. Full face mask which looks cool.

Even then, your field of view sucks, they're sweaty as hell, and even if you gut the filter entirely it still feels like breathing through a hose. Everyone who's had to use one in real life for any significant period hates them. The only gas masks practical for airsoft are full-face respirators like what DarkSamus uses, and even then what you basically have is a dressed-up full face mask.

[/QUOTE] This is why i love my MCU-2P. It's ballistically safe and I don't find it any more sweaty than wearing a balaclava + goggles or a full face mask, and it has a better field of view than any airsoft masks i've used. I'm working on getting my filter hollowed out. I got the charcoal out but the cotton wool right at the front is proving a pain in the ass to move. Untill then i just don't use it :v: Only downside is i can't really aim with it on unless i really force my face down against my gun.
Back in Cadets we had to do a 1 mile run with full NBC suits on, including the mask. My god, never again.
jarhead?

[QUOTE=DarkZero135;34032354]jarhead?[/QUOTE] Doing it in the desert is just... mad. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
all the cheap mcus and mcu derivatives disappeared fuck
MCUs look front heavy I can never seem to bring myself to buy one because lighter gasmasks are generally more comfortable
