Just in case anyone's curious about the M40 drinking tube not have a lever on the outside to manipulate it, from the M42A2 manual: "a. Press in on the top of the outlet valve cover (1) until internal drink tube (2) can be grasped between your teeth." You're actually meant to press the mask to get the tube into your mouth (which sounds considerably less than ideal). Regarding the comment about it creeping into your mouth, you can pretty easily rotate it further from your face as its just a rubber tube friction fit over a stem.
Good comparison video. Ive never tried an S10 but judging by your analysis I suspect is is just as good a mask as you say. I live in the US so freight on one Is very pricey but if I ever can get on e for a decent price, I will. I do have an M40 and my particular variant hasn't been stored very well but is still overall a sound mask.I do also have a recently made MCU-2/P and MCu-2 A/P and Id have to say, they are by far my favorite masks. I have the hood but no second skin for them yet. I also have the unfortunate privilege of owning a GP-7V and Id say your analysis of the mask was spot on. I personally didn't have problem with rubber getting in my eyes, seeings how I have a size large, but all the other problems are there. I would never trust my life to it, but I will say the appearance is certainly up there of done of the creepiest gas masks. I appreciate the good content!
Cheers, in the US Avon manufactures the FM12 (The S10 2) for a lot of sales to US Police forces, if you can get your hands on an FM12 or CT12 they are even better versions of the S10.
Hey, I recently bought a CT12 but dont know if the filter contains chromium (i know it doesnt have asbestos because its dated 1997) Is it safe to wear? I already have the filter sealed just in case and have only worn the mask without the filter. EDIT: Just did the filter safety test with paper and its leaking so even if it doesnt have chromium im not gonna wear it.
S10 is one of my favourite as well. It's very comfortable as you said. By the way, can you give me any idea where I can buy gas mask? Maybe or (I'm sure) you know where I can buy some good condition gas masks.
The PMK-3 feels close in quality to the S10, holds its shape better, nothing like the PMK-2, which has thinner tackier feeling rubber. I reckon Liam would like the PMK-3.
It is probably water produced in respiration. I'd be concerned if it was sweat as you'd be absolutely drenched in it. I have an S10 too and it is guaranteed to just be moisture from breath.
Can you please do a video on cleaning various types of gas masks and if there are any care kits or special brushes? It would help me keep my masks clean and last longer
I think that all soviet masks fog up. And those plastic salted things you put on the inside of the mask’s lens are not helping at all, they tend to fall after some minutes. S10 FTW
Could you do a video where you check some of your surplus for radiation levels? I would especially appreciate of you measured the rebreathers, as they are associated with the Chernobyl disaster. Perhaps I'm just paranoid, I don't know...
@@Weaponsandstuff93 most likely yeah. On one hand I love the surplus but on the other hand I tend to get paranoid about it. Especially about stuff associated with nuclear disasters....
I know that there are scams out there but eBay is the best way to find gas masks. If u still don't want to use it then I suggest typing the name of the mask or just "Gas Masks' and then your country's name on a search engine. *Example:* GP5 Gas Mask Germany (Or Deutschland).
hey i have a question, i just received my drager m65 gas mask from the mail, it was pretty dusty inside and also when i wipe the insides of the mask with a wet tissue there are these small black bits on the tissue ,anyway i instantly put it on and breathe through it twice (i think) without cleaning the gas mask first,but also without a filter. Am i going to get any long term diseases ?
ahh thanks mate, i was very very worried i would get tuberculosis or some other stuff.And also about cleaning the drager m65 there is that front 'metal nose piece' should i take it off to ?
As a person just getting into chem warfare i watched your video on mustard gas and i wanted to ask would gas mask such as the S10 protect your face from it?
The Russians made up for their mistakes with the PMK-1 and 2 with the PMK-3 at least. Much better quality and thicker feel of the rubber, the PMK-3 rubber actually feels closer to an S10, all be it a bit late, but better late than never. I have the M40 and PMK-3 and I like the PMK-3 more than the US M40 by far.

I want more American gas masks, but I live in America, so there super overpriced.
At least they are banned from sale in the US.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 wait what? gas masks arent allowed to be sold in the us?
@@Weaponsandstuff93 i know its a pain i have to get them snuck out or pay approvedgasmaskscoms's prices
Actually, U.S gas masks they can be sold in the US. HOWEVER, they cannot be sold out of the U.S. just sayin
Haha... I got a full set of M40,bag,and everything for $50.
Thatcher vs Shephard vs Artyom
Your right
@@dutchvanderlinde1397
*you're
Are the bottom S10 straps meant to be thinner than the others?
I don't think so but as they get pulled the most they are probably the most stretched/worn.
I got a Ben Shapiro ad before this video 10/10
Who did he destroy with facts and logic?

Also consider that all the gas masks you can buy in America are mostly listed off ones, only thing you can keep them is just for decoration

I don't actually know if the filter contains it or not but if the filter is leaking never use it regardless of the contents.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 cheers mate

Your very close to 50k subs, Congrats!
Cheers will hit 50k subs at some point today most likely, I filmed a 50k video but I'll have to rearrange the videos for it to show up.
Getting an S10 soon wondering a. What the filter contains(if I buy the and they were made this year 2019) b. What size of filter
i got myself a pmk 3, its great!
Cool I'll look out for one

If you buy those gas masks GP - 5/7 or whatever other in Russia, they have antifog membranes in stock
Is it normal for sweat to come out of the voice diaphragm using the S10?
Yeah, it is. The heat of your breath coming out creates moisture.
It is probably water produced in respiration. I'd be concerned if it was sweat as you'd be absolutely drenched in it. I have an S10 too and it is guaranteed to just be moisture from breath.
As others have said it's most likely moisture from your breath condensing on the colder plastic.
I have the M40 left handed version even though I’m right handed. Nothing being ambidextrous can’t fix!
M40 is ambidextrous
Us m40 is my favoriet gasmask
how do you take out goles on m40 clear
Ok are there any special brushes? Thank you i love your videos just aquired a polish mr1 and a Swiss mask...i ordered a black gp5 in the mail
Not that I know of, I'd just recommend using baby wipes or a sanatized cloth.
Can you please do a video on cleaning various types of gas masks and if there are any care kits or special brushes? It would help me keep my masks clean and last longer
Already have
m50 vs pmk-s vs gsr modern comparison
Can I still use the m40 safely mask even though I lost the side cup on the filter thread?
I used to play battlefield Hardline with a gasmask equipped while wearng a gasmask (it's one of those all-glass faced mask)
I think it's the MCU-2P in the recent Battlefield games.
Found ur channel about a month ago . Have a question . Is the Isreali mask 40 mm nato fitting . Need new filter as one on it looks original . Thanx .
Sort of, Israeli masks are 40mm normalised meaning they fit both NATO and GOST filters however Israeli filters are NATO threaded.
I came to the comments to see if there was anybody hating the choices or claiming you were biased however to my surprise there was none
Wait and see lol.
Nice video my dude
Cheers
@@Weaponsandstuff93 thanks for the video
No joke, this is my favorite gas mask because the game swat 2 XD
i have acess to a canadian c4 gas mask if you would possibly like to work something out where we gould make a trade that would be great
I never trade masks
I think that all soviet masks fog up. And those plastic salted things you put on the inside of the mask’s lens are not helping at all, they tend to fall after some minutes. S10 FTW
No most of the old Soviet masks have decent tissot systems so they don't fog up.
does the ShMS also fog up?
Not really as it actually has tissot tubes.
Weaponsandstuff93 ok thanks!
Could you do a video where you check some of your surplus for radiation levels? I would especially appreciate of you measured the rebreathers, as they are associated with the Chernobyl disaster. Perhaps I'm just paranoid, I don't know...
I think it's paranoia but it may make an interesting video anyway.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 most likely yeah. On one hand I love the surplus but on the other hand I tend to get paranoid about it. Especially about stuff associated with nuclear disasters....
Awesome!
Thanks
Can you do a updated video on your gm-54 gas mask ?
I did one like a year ago on it, nothing more to say about a mummified mask.
My favorite Avon mask is the m50
Yeah that's great as well
I recently seen a S10 in a local surplus shop for only 20 quid, guess the owner doesn't know it's value compared to sellers on eBay etc.
It's only worth about £30 normally anyway.
I wish the m95 had lense outserts
Where can i get gas mask and is there any store (not ebay i dont trust that)
I know that there are scams out there but eBay is the best way to find gas masks.
If u still don't want to use it then I suggest typing the name of the mask or just "Gas Masks' and then your country's name on a search engine.
*Example:* GP5 Gas Mask Germany (Or Deutschland).
If you refuse to use eBay, there are a few on amazon not many though, army surplus stores and that's about it.
Why don't you trust eBay? It's a shame, eBay has the best customer protection for buyers. I fully recommend eBay.
Good video! Know I know which to buy (if I do)
Well the FM12 or Forsheda F2 is better than the S10 regardless.
I want to buy the s10 but I don't know which size should I get.
1 is large, 4 is very small.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 could I get more details please like what's meant by large and very small.
PMK drinking water system an imitation of m40? If yes.. means PMK can use the U.S water bottle?
would and Israeli type 80 filter prevent me from breathing in mold spores?
Yes
what is a good price for a avon s10
Used to be £30-50, now lots sadly are £100-200
Same with the m40 in the us

I imagine it was just dusty, I wouldn't worry about it.
ahh thanks mate, i was very very worried i would get tuberculosis or some other stuff.And also about cleaning the drager m65 there is that front 'metal nose piece' should i take it off to ?
in my opinion I love the pmk design
Fair enough
You can't manipulate it but you can pop off the drinking tube from the inside that's I did and I have it safe in my bag
Great feature lol
As a person just getting into chem warfare i watched your video on mustard gas and i wanted to ask would gas mask such as the S10 protect your face from it?
Yes but only the areas covered by the mask.
Also, do Israeli filters stop mold?
Yes
I would love to have the S10, but in Poland there are no S tens and shipping from Britain costs double amount of a price of a mask
The Russians made up for their mistakes with the PMK-1 and 2 with the PMK-3 at least. Much better quality and thicker feel of the rubber, the PMK-3 rubber actually feels closer to an S10, all be it a bit late, but better late than never. I have the M40 and PMK-3 and I like the PMK-3 more than the US M40 by far.
Cool if I see one for a sensible price I'll try and get one.
m40 is more nice, s10 is more functional, pmk1 is the cheapest
Ok thank you

us is best 🇺🇸
