How much should a Gas mask/Respirator cost?
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Pricing guidelines on how much you should spend on a gas mask or respirator. In this video, I take into consideration the prices of antique gas masks from WW1 and WW2, as well as more modern military surplus masks.
For the preppers side of things, I take into consideration the price of newer models of military surplus masks using 40mm filters and the cost of both disposable and reusable industrial respirators.
An important point to consider is the cost of new filters for these masks, 40mm NBC/CBRN filters, and industrial ABEK-P filters will vary a lot in price, with some industrial filters being exclusive to certain models of gas mask. So check the price of filters before deciding on a mask.
It is better to spend more on a mask and then pay less for filters than the other way around.
Masks seen in the video are the AVON CT12 gas mask and the Israeli Shalon 4A1 civilian respirator.

NBC means a contractor who spends their own money is buying it. CBRN means a politician who has no sense of money asked a bureaucrat with no sense of money to buy it. Usually, there's not much of a difference, but one makes people think it's better because it was initially bought for a much higher price.

There’s so many choices on eBay it’s overwhelming. I want to get a small collection. But what do you recommend to start with for something to save my life and I can get cheap filters on eBay? I prefer something newer? But also what’s the cheapest mask that’s still reliable even if it’s very old?
that's very cool I got a ww1 German gm17 in mint condition that fully works and creates a perfect seal still worth $900 USD I got for $190 and My friend got a ww1 Russian Zaleski kummant mask for $300 worth over $2k. there's only 1 vid on all of KZread of his mask and I've only seen 2 owned by people online and 1 in a museum
i have found my m65z mask with gp5 filter for 5€, both are working, just don't know if it was too cheap
Good video and well said the Mickey Mouse mask will probably go up in price in few years as many will be in bad condition after storing in the attic and also there in a way better quality than the civilian mask of ww2 as the flutter valve and the more adjustable straps and the removable filter that screws off.
@Weaponsandstuff93

Cheers, yeah most WW2 masks will go up in value simply as the ones kept badly deteriorate as you said. I imagine the Mickey Mouse mask was better quality because they had to make the parts smaller, and less of them had to be produced.

Not really, you either have sites that massively overcharge for masks, for example, one site sells Soviet masks for $200+ when you can find the same masks on eBay for $30. Other than that army surplus stores often stock masks but I find they often cost more than eBay as well and sometimes separate the kit to sell for even more.
Right now a lot guys try to bid gas mask to $140 -200 lol. Usually s10 gas mask around $120 or less than, a lot people try to bid for price so hight and buy used one so ridiculous
