Heya, I am just wondering if there any any army Gas mask collectors in this community.
If so what mask do you consider better PMK-2 or GP-7? Tbh I really love how they look like and I am thinking about getting one for my old Soviet collection.
I mean, they're mostly the same functionally, except the PMK-2 can mount filters on both sides. I guess the PMK-2 is slightly better in that regard, but they both share the same core designs.
You probably know this already but you should be careful about what filters you choose for 40mm GOST threads, considering some have asbestos in them.

Don't really collect masks but I've had this French Ajax F2 for a while now.
(Not actually the one I have)
After some research I believe these were issued to civilians and firefighters in the 1920s-1930s in France, although earlier models were used in the First world war. Age has claimed the glass of my one, the two windows being now a piss-yellow colour cos of how badly it was kept in my old man's house. It's just a collection piece though, wearing it for over 15 minutes and taking it off gives you the experience of what being asthmatic is like. Always been tempted to collect more WW2 gas masks and leftover french/US/British helmets at garage-sales, but my apartment doesn't have enough room to store much stuff.
