    Theo, Thankyou for this video. In the process of M50 acquisition and this video is a GREAT help/guide to using the M50 correctly. It is nice to have a soldier give back to the public with great technical information regarding proper kit use. Best, Tim

    As a 74D, I can tell you M50 is a great mask compared to the M40. I do have to explain to soldiers one of the big differences between the two: M40, you can breath without the cannister being attached and not so for the M50.

Keep it up, great job!👍👏 I used the older model m40 in conus 🇺🇸 , 🇮🇶 🇦🇫 until my enlistment exfil in ‘08, and still currently have one for civilian work and personal use. I’ve currently ordered and waiting on the Avon C50. Can an you do an opinion review from a glasses wearing soldier, of the spectacle insert attachment for the pro mask m50? S/F🤟

      Hey, sorry nobody got back to you. I got issued this mask with the inserts about a year ago, used it a lot in the field. If you haven't found out already yourself, the inserts are great. They cover almost your whole field of vision, and there's a few degrees of separation between them and your forehead so they don't fog up as fast as you'd think. Glasses *I think* will break your seal so that's bad to go, but I've always had the inserts so I can't say for sure. Good luck

      One filter is usually removed when shooting, works well. Just gotta ensure the rubber seal inside isnt damaged before or after. Tube connects to a canteen cap that is included but you can also buy and adapter for camelbak as well

    • @zeezeez7943

      Don't use Lysol to clean your mask. This is recommended against strongly by the manufacturer. Use Warm Water only if you aren't trained on maintaining your mask. If you are exposed to a CBRN environment and don't have the proper resources to decon it, only use glycerin soap.

    • @VVayVVard
      @VVayVVard Рік тому +1

      Depends very much on the environment. Activated carbon can last 3x~5x longer than advertised if you only use the filters sporadically, in relatively clean environments. It's also worth noting that filters tend to slowly lose their capacity to adsorb or neutralize contaminants, which means that expired filters will still tend to work for a while, with some loss in performance, and can therefore be useful against less serious chemical threats.

    tip #1: don't refer the M50 as a Pro Mask, Pro mask is the commercial mask term, M50 is a military specific mask. So M50 is just M50. There are differences in quality and military performance of Pro Mask vs M50.
