M9A1 Respirator VS M9 Clones

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Comparing the US M9/M9A1 respirator to it's various clones and copies.
The M9 was a very advanced gas mask for when it went into American service in the late 1940s, a comfortable face-piece, balanced weight, tissot tubes and an oral-nasal cup and a quick to change 60mm filter.
M9 style masks were used by South Korea, Japan, Sweden, Finland, Yugoslavia/Serbia, Iraq and Egypt, there may be other users as well.
Finland and Yugoslavia made their own improved versions as well, so in this video we compare the M9 to the M9 clones.

    The most useful of these masks (in my opinion): 1. M2 2. M61 3. M9A1 4. M1

    I have a Yugoslav M2 and this is the best 40MM Filter GASMASK I ever owned!! Love it! I daily wear it against corna when I am in the public. Its a little hard to talk under that thing but its funny when I am in the post office ordering some stamps etc.... sounds pretty much like Darth Vader :-))))

    Gotta love the M2(one of my first masks). The Serbs have begun to withdraw it from service and replace it with another modernised M9 model, the M3 which has a voice diaphragm and is made of black rubber.

    The M9 was used all the way up to the 70's, with the national guard, at least. You can see it pictures during the Kent state massacre, when a lot of national guardsmen can be seen wearing it. rdln.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/kentstate2.jpg
