Default The gasmask thread

Being an active person in the belgian militaria world, i help with a mate his store. Going to fairs gasmasks have always been a very intresting thingy for me. Metro 2033...i bought it because the box showed a man with a gasmask! i was instanly sold

These masks can vary from price to size in many ways, i was wondering if anyone collected these things like i do.

the ones i have=


Russian GP-5 gasmask



East german gasmask


Finnish WW2 light gas mask



US army gasmask


Other finnish army gasmask!


Polish army gas mask

and last but not least=

From my own country=Belgian army gas mask!

Anyone else collecting these things?

They are covered under ITAR (international traffic in Arms Regulations). In order to purchase it from a US of A supplier I'll need an import permit from my country, then I'll have to submit it to the US State Dept. along with an export permit request and a fee. In other words: Fat chance.
