Italian/Spanish M31-33 Gas Mask
In this video I discuss the history and features of the Italian M31-33 gas mask. Large numbers of this mask were imported into Spain during the Spanish Civil War. In the early 1960s they were refurbished and modernized to accept a 40mm filter.

Another video involving these masks should be out next week. In it I answer some of the questions I raised during this video. There is also a surprise at the end so stay tuned for that!

I am in the United States but unfortunately do not have a shop, I am just a college student at the moment! Perhaps someday though. I sold this lot to International Military Antiques. You should be able to find them on Google.

Spanish made canister. Greyish original paint underneath. Not dated or makers mark. I use to have one with a grey Dangas gas mask 1940s made I think
What size of head would the sizes 1-3 fit because im looking to purchase one but I don’t know what size to get

II fits most, III is only if you have a very large head. If I were you, I'd definitely get an II if you haven't already bought another gas mask.
Ive seen the product in IMAUSA.com and there only one way to get German Carrier, but what about the other sizes? Is there another Carrier like the one Made by the marañosa from the t35 mask bag Carriers?
Looks like you got it

Is your filter one of the “coffee can” types with a hose or the kind pictured in my video?

@@isaachitchcock7113 The filters seen in my video were more "modern" Spanish produced licensed copies of a German filter and made in the 50s-60s. I imagine that your GM-30 was probably refurbished after the war and had one of these newer filters added to it. The M31-33s that I have went through this refurbishment process as well and were modified to accept 40mm filters like those used on the GM-30. This standardized the filter type used on the wide variety of masks that Spain had in their arsenals post-war. Hope that makes sense.
