WELCOME TO CBRN ACADEMY!

On this KZread channel you will learn everything you need to know about present day of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear protection. We field test modern gas masks and other relevant equipment to bring you high-quality reviews, but we also play around with historical pieces in our „History of NBC units“ series to give you a better perspective on how things worked in the past and how they hold up by today’s standards.

With #civildefense gone, you're on your own 😎

    7:00 I scored a brand new British Army field pack (the green camo haversack), from eBay. You're right. It is a great satchel for a gas mask. It's specifically designed for the current British Army gas masks (I've forgotten which one that is). It has internal pockets, too. One of the internal pockets is to store a spare gas mask cartridge. Their masks use a strange proprietary gas cartridge that's rather flat and long, but still rounded. I have British Army CBRN tactical aid memoir, that tells us how to use the bag (and all the other CBRN equipment). There are a couple of smaller internal pockets that it doesn't tell us how to use, though.

    Yep, the Counter CBRN Aide Memoire is a very helpful book. Since we're currently finishing a review of the GSR gas mask (the current British one), I found lots of vital information about the gas mask, which I was unable to find anywhere else.

    I'm tempted to say yes just for the fun of it but it's not. Believe it or not, my life doesn't revolve around gas masks as this channel is just my hobby project. In any case, my ready to be deployed respirator is always attached to a PAPR unit. Positive pressure negates this ages old problem. We will address this topic however in the third episode of "what can get you killed" series and you will surely see me clean shaven for our upcoming CS spray test of older gas masks.

    I love the idea of these things but the cartridge system is a no go for me personally. It locks you in to proprietary filters which are limited and very expensive. 40mm NATO filters are ubiquitous. They are also abundant in army surplus stores and the civilian market. It certainly seems like the price of the cartridge filters has dropped dramatically (they used to be twice the price) but this might well be because everyone is opting for the 40mm version of this mask. I personally would not want a mask where there was a single source for the filters. If there is a war or some kind of large scale civilian incident, Avon might suspend sales to the civilian market. During the pandemic 3M stopped selling one type of cartridge and only sold it to medical purchasers. Beautiful mask though.
