Speaking of those straps; the plastic buckles on my GP-7V still have the flash on them from when they were cut out of the moulds. So adjusting the straps is about as comfortable as trying to pull a lump of super glue through a razor blade.

Yeah GP-7V is the better model but I think they all can have quality control issues, I imagine if you got a PMK/GP-7 that made a perfect face fit and had good parts it would be an okay mask, sadly my PMK type masks all don't really fit me very well and have poor quality parts. Also cheers.

Quick question, could you maybe do a video on how to insert the gp7 anti fog lenses, I really need it plz

I have a GP7 it fits me very well, snug fit. I would like to upgrade my filters any recommendations?

Something that makes changing sizes easier for me is pulling on the loop that is made on the outer side of the buckles, until you make a nice big hole, which makes an easier time of pulling more slack until you've resized it enough, and then pulling on it depending on whether you want it tighter or looser. Kinda hard to describe.

PBF but with 40mm filters (Like the STALKER masks) or SHMS? Theoretically, of course, which one would you prefer?

What filter did you use

I can't get my gp7 to work and I can't figure out why

What if you cut the inner face seal? Would it ruin the whole mask?

Do the later PMKs have similar design flaws/issues in general? Like PMK-2 and 3? Or are they still roughly the same design internally and just look different on the outside?

Yeah I recently got the gp-7 soviet gas mask and it seems like the inner lining is hard to get over my face

Weird, I have a GP-7 from the third quarter of 1991 and it's really good quality, everything works as expected. I gotta say, one of the more comfortable masks in my collection. It's really uncomfortable to get on but once you have it on your face it's really comfortable. The fogging issue can be easily fixed with a anti-dim soap or a anti-dim wipe, small enough to have in your pocket or satchel.

But aren't there different revisions/versions of each of those such that the same 'type' might be better if looking at a, kind of, Mark 2 version, I mean? What do you actually DO with all these masks anyway??

Do you prefer the PMK/GP-7 gas mask or the PMG gas mask? They look a bit similar to me.

@Weaponsandstuff93

I doubt it, FM12 maybe more so but the S10 has thin plastic lenses, they would shatter if hit.

the anti fog lenses that usually come with the masks are pretty good at preventing lense fog, i have the GP-7V M (militarized version of the GP7 itself, unlike the PMK which was specific to military only.). Also it was the same experience for me until i messed with the straps (which are a pain to loosen up or tighten). The mask became significantly more comfortable and way better sealed. Im american but im also partially russian and i still have the slavic head shape, so that might help. Also the drinking tube is in a rather uncomfortable place for the mask, you have to maneuver your mouth a lot to actually get your teeth in the cut outs.I suggest using the anti fog lenses and get a bigger size.

i bought a gp-7v but its manufacture date is 1992 on both the mask and filter should i be cautious with the filter or did the manufacture specs change ?

Not too worried by the unorthodox filter attachment, I'm sure I could get used to it. From what some people have said on KZread comments and videos I've seen today, the post-2000 made MPK's should have better quality control than ones made towards the collapse of the USSR, no idea how true this all is, but it makes sense to me. The plastic parts may also be badly molded, supposedly the PMK 1's have better plastic parts, than later PMK 2's, and the rubber could also be cheap and finner in places than they should be. The drinking tube is supposed to be garbage and falls apart, one guy said he replaced his with and an Isreali drinking tube. I'll have to wait and see, but it will be good to have the kit for my small collection.

I heard that that inner seal is problematic only if the size is too small .

I have another question, do all green 40mm filters contain asbestos because I really would like to get a white gp5 with the original but because of the asbestos I don't want to risk it. If anyone could help where I can buy a 100% safe original looking 40mm filter please help.

But I also have two GP-5 masks one from ‘70 and one from ‘90. The one from 1990 is x10 more irritating to put on then both the other GP-5 and the GP-7v.
