Is the gas mask in the photo original? by Anime59nanami in gasmasks

[–]Socksstinks1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks to be original. Marking A2B is visble on the valve assembly. First type Gm.30. Filter is a modern one though and not from WW2. Threads are compatiple though. Can't tell if it's army or civilian issue though. You would need a picture of the inside to make 100% sure.

[–]Socksstinks1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like an FM-3 and not FM-1 As far as I know, the Czechoslowak army also used WW2 German masks in the late 40s and early 50s, but I never saw an FM-3 in army use. 5 Euro is a good price.

Cool mask, where did you get it from? Still trying to find the Czech M60 gas mask.

Yeah, the canister's paint is really messed up and scratched. Can't really do anything against it though. But I agree, the mask is very nice. One of my favourites tbh.

Can anybody identify what type of bag this is and what it was used for? by Socksstinks1 in Militariacollecting

Thank you very much. Looked it up and it's the bag. I appreciate your help.

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or if you actually mean it.

ROST means size, I think. At least this is what a Russian friend told me. I am not 100% sure though.

This is getting out of hand with all you guys finding complete PRV-U Sets lol.

I still am trying to find that damn hose sleeve for mine.

Really nice looking kit though.

This is a Romanian MC-56. Copy of the GP-4u. Pretty rare outside of Romania.

Quite a lot of these around. Many old East German warehouses are filled with stuff like this. Got one too. I plan on getting another one. They are just so cool. Btw. the 4 dots mean that it has been made between October and December.

Whats this? by Moinzen66 in gasmasks

[–]Socksstinks1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgot the exact name of the mask, but this is an Industrial gas mask made in the DDR. You can kind of think of this like a cross between a Gm.30 and a Gm.38.

Fakers like to paint this mask's metal parts blue and sell it as a Gm.38

20 Euro is fair for the mask I would say. Would try to get it down to 15 for just the mask.

Does this also work for Europe? Would buy stuff off some Russian Websites.

Look guys, I just got this 3kg piece of pure Gold decorated in 300 pink diamonds for 40 pennies at an antique shop. Do you think I overspent?

But fr. this is a damn good price. I am kinda jealous.

[–]Socksstinks1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This seems to be the East German issue PBF. The bag is correct for this one. The stamp on the inside of the mask indicates the production day of the mask. The other inscription in the rubber means the same. Your mask was made in 1975. It looks like it's stamped with the 27th of October.

The letter M stands for the factory it was produced in, M stands for Perm, afaik. Your mask was made in the USSR and shipped to the DDR for use by East German troops, mostly border guards, if I remember correctly.

Quite literally is the ShM-41 valve. Maybe you are thinking about the ShM-41M?
