Israeli M15 Military Gas Mask w/ Nato Filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used and trained with several types of gas masks, including Scott and other brands.
Thank goodness for the Israelis! Why? For one reason: do you know of any U.S.-made gas mask that is as economical and available for any member of the U.S. public? I'm talking about "gas masks" and not "escape hoods" which the latter is a joke compared to gas masks.
You may ask, "Well, what would they think about me at work if I brought in a full gas mask?" Pardon me, but if you're dumb enough to tell them, then you can probably expect a negative reaction. Or worse, when you reach into your (locked) work cabinet to get it, you'll notice it missing and see one of your coworkers wearing it while she is evacuating from the building. So store it and the sealed filter in bag and keep your mouth shut!
In the Israeli line of gask masks that is available to the general public, the Military model is far superior than the "civilan version" (the immediate visual distinction is that the civilian version has round eyepieces, while the military version has triangle-shapped eyepieces, plus a fluid intake apparatus built onto the mask.) Neither product is compatable with the operator wearing eyeglasses under the mask (contact lenses are okay), as opposed to other brands (Scott) which have an attachment for Rx lenses under the mask.
One main caution: the filters that come with the Israeli masks are generally okay for low-scale toxins, but if you want a filter that will cover you for a full scope (or near full scope) of biological and chemical agents you should get some for that specific purpose. They are available (at a higher cost) over the internet. Consider chemical suits and protective clothing too. Keep the filters sealed and in airtight containers so they will last you for years. Use the NATO filters that came with your Israeli masks for training purposes for you, your family, your loved ones, and those whom you have stewardship over. Think of ideal ways to make practice fun, especially with children and the elderly!
Remember that if a time comes (a critical incident) that you DO need the higher end bio-chem filters, you probably will not be able to obtain any at least for the immediate future.
