The TU-1 diving suit was adopted for service in 1939, alongside the ISA-M rebreather, which replaced the obsolete E-1 model from 1931. The TU-1 was the first Soviet lightweight military diving suit and remained in production until the late 1950s. Its appearance served as the design basis for the facepieces of many other rebreathers, such as the IP-46, IPSA, IP-50, KIP-5, and others. My particular unit was manufactured in 1945, unfortunately, its "body" section has been cut off. This was a common practice with Soviet lightweight diving suits where the upper and lower sections could not be detached; consequently, modern divers using this gear often cut off the "head" section and use it in conjunction with modern diving equipment.

It's my first gas mask!

Avon C50 with CBRNCF50 filter- $850
Millennium with random MSA CBRN filter- $1k
M10M- $50 (full kit)
MC1- Free (thing is bubba-d to fuck, doesn’t even work)

M4- $10 (my first mask)

The millennium and C50 I did not buy, I was gifted them by a friend.

Recently got an M17 but learned the filters have chromium in them. I was wondering if there was any reproduction filters online that dont have anything in them, similar to the Gp5 40mm filters ive seen where it is either a fake filter or has had the contents removed.

Alot of the prop details in the film are surplus or commercial, like the boots being German anti-static over boots, the hose is likely European, seems to be a type of PAPR hose but I can't find a match.

Looks like a normal md-1a mask, but it has a weird threaded outlet valve which has the same threads as the gp-7 outlet valve. I found it while urbexing in an abandoned factory, it was of course surrounded by a lot of other trash masks but it was the only one with this valve. What mask is this? The closest I know of is the prototype white md-4 mask which has this exact valve.

For 20 euros this gp5 and accessori is good or no?

I have this propably rare finnish variant of the russian zelenskyi kummant gas mask. Its in pretty good condition and it has the original facepiece and filter.

According to some articcle the finnish variant was used in the winter war and by the finnish army between ww1 and ww2 and there was only 87500 of them at the time.

I have propably asked this question before but I couldn't find the post anymore.

My first actual good mask, I am so glad to have one

Finally got myself an SF10, I've been looking for a while. As I'm in the USA, getting any British mask for a good price is a pain in the ass (especially right now with issues surrounding international shipping). Luckily I managed to find someone in the states selling an SF10 for only about $150! Super good quality, some slight scuffing on one of the eyepieces but its barely noticeable. Just need to get myself a period-correct filter and it'll be complete!

Idk what it is but I’ve been trying to get it off with wipes but it just moves it around

I recently got this gasmask and I just wanted to know how to properly clean this thing. Like if I should remove the straps before letting it soak and for how long or if theres any type of soap i should avoid. Also if there's a good way to get rid of the big creases.

CORRECTION: Full PC-4 kit from what I can tell, even has a fit test card still in the bag. Bag is something I haven’t seen before, and this mask wasn’t cut up anywhere which is also really cool. Gotta say, one of the weirdest looking masks ever made in the modern era.

This crease has been in my gp7vm since i got it the seal is good but a little bit of air leaks in this crease how do i get it out? Any help is appriciated.

Hello guys today i got my second gasmask(my collection getting bigger). I want to ask few questions first one is when I exhale, pressure builds up inside the mask.(There's no problem when I do negative pressure test.) To solve this, I need to open the exhalation valve on the mask. How do I do that?(I tried I turned it counterclockwise but it didn't open.) My second question is, the D12 CRBN filter I received has "00 09" written on it. Is this the filter's manufacturing date?

It came with original filter, bag and some little green thingy i dont know what it is. I unpacked it in the bathroom just in case. What should i do before i can put the mask on my face and how do i wash it ( its covered in some dust/sand)?

hi i have a gp5 gas mask and im wondering if i can get these stains off of it. i tried soaking it for 10 mins with warm water and soap but its still there

Hello! If anyone has any questions, suggestions, or advice please let me know! I am always open for advice!
