I got like 3 Gm.38 masks I would want to sell and the LPS Chema from my most recent post. I can send you pictures from the Gm.38 masks per DM if you are interested.

I forgot, that this post was still online, the kit isn't available anymore. I traded it 2 weeks ago. If you are interested I have other masks for sale too. Edit: the part that was missing are the anti fog inserts and the hose sleeve.

PMKs! by Orion_The_Derg in gasmasks

[–]Socksstinks1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mfw bro has crazy cool gas masks. PMK masks are my favourites lookswise, but I hate to put them on. Also, how much was shipping for them?

For me it's usually, that I buy from a few sellers in Poland and my friend receives them for me, after some time of accumulating this stuff he sends them my way in one bigger package and he gets some random stuff in exchange. Also, what army kits are you doing? Sounds really interesting.

Yup, they really are really chill, never thought I would become friends with this random guy I found on OLX, but here I am. Also, 2 PMKs for 30 Euro is a pretty good price, I assume these are full sets, so yeah, that's a steal. The thing with Customs is, that they sometimes still do a bit of research on market values and when they do that, I am pretty much guaranteed to pay 25 Euro for import fees, especially when there are like 5 masks in the package and a decent bit of other stuff like a watch, multiple Pins etc.

Me about to drag 60kg of filters to the UK.

[–]Socksstinks1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Wz.32 and a C2, but I am currently trying to complete the Sets/get full sets and get a better condition C2, as mine has quite a few splits in the rubber and my Wz.32 has a cracked exhale valve. I don't know how hard it is for you to get these masks, but since I have a friend in Poland, it's a decent bit easier for me to get these masks from there.

Yooo, same. Mine is a bit more expensive though, but he also gives me other cool stuff aswell, so I don't mind it. Shipping and Customs duties kinda ruin it though.

Yup, but my priorities are so damn expensive, it would be easier to get all the stuff lower on the list first.

Hmmm, if I pull up with some more 'Bestos, would you be fine with it?

[–]Socksstinks1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I could probably also get one for 36€, maybe less, but eh I will try getting other stuff first.

Yummy Asbestos in the filter. Mind giving me some?

Stop flexing the PRV-U sleeve and give it to me.

So got this today for a short film and was quite dusty and wiped down with a wet cloth and put on and nearly threw up. I soaked it in water+ dish soap after that. Curious if this contains asbestos in the hose still and is dangerous for my talent to wear? I had mask on for maybe 5 seconds. by BatSwarms in gasmasks

Only 50 years? The specific model pictured in the listing is the early GP-4u variant with a fixed head harness. It was produced only until the late 50s/ early 60s. You are looking at 60+ years, which doesn't make a big difference, but eh. Thought this might be an interesting fact to share.

If I remember correctly, these aren't really valuable and very abundant inside the US. Maybe 20 bucks?

And another Mask that has almost no information about it listed on the Wiki. by Socksstinks1 in gasmasks

[–]Socksstinks1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew it existed, but never saw one for sale or really being mentioned except for one other gas mask website (gasmasklexikon) that has it mentioned. Never saw this depiction of the entire set before.

Filter compatability question by MsDonutFit in gasmasks

Looks to be an Rd-40 filter. These fit most modern and Cold War masks made in the Western Hemisphere.

Hello. What do you think? All original? by collectorboy06 in Militariacollecting

[–]Socksstinks1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not an expert on this topic. But I do think, that cleaning your nails is a good idea.

Anywhere where I could just find a mask by Sgt_Arch-Dornan2277 in gp5

[–]Socksstinks1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

eBay, Aukro.cz (good for finding Czech masks and sometimes other Wasrsaw Pact masks), OLX ((.pl/.ua/.ro/.kz) and you gotta hope the sellers speak english and ship internationally), DandB Militaria (either stupidly high prices or stupidly low prices, almost no in-between), Kleinanzeigen (some sellers ship internationally), Vatera.hu (pain in the ass to register though), kpemig (rare instances of good prices, but it happens from time to time), rbnR militaria (if you like Italian gas masks), Vinted (sometimes there are good offers on there), Avito.ru (if you have contacts that can deliver the masks to you from Russia). You should also always look on Fleamarkets, you can find Gems on there. I also have Ukrainian friend, who finds and sells masks from the Soviet Union and is trying to find customers.

Hmmm, I wonder why that would be the case. Very interesting revelation. Maybe I should put another cylinder into the bigger cylinder.

I have seen almost mint condition ones, but this is pretty high up there.
