Hey bro, I'm a big fan! I have a CM-6M mask how did you remove the cap? It seems locked.
@@marcelobonnet544 May just be tight, pliers?
@@CanadianPrepper I see, which way did you unscrew clockwise or anti-clockwise? I don't want to break it. Was it relatively easy for you? Or did you have to apply strength?
I love this channel.. Everytime I buy something new I have never used before, within a week.. You upload a vid on how to use it... Keep it up.. Its been extremely helpful and informative..
I was talking my uncle who worked in a mine the company had a hard time with the workers not keeping their mask on during the shift. So they brought in a lady who was an expert. She had them wear the mask and she went down into the mine with them. At lunch break she took off her filter and cut it in half and compared that one to the unused one and she did the same with the workers after they saw the difference for themselves they were much more compliant with wearing their mask. Good video. Most important get 40 thread filter to use.
40mm NATO, not 40mm GOST threads.

@@beanieteamie7435 get 40mm gost to NATO adapter by aptus works if using a old gost mask
something of note: tear gas is a particulate, not a gas like the name implies
very useful, overlooked comment
@@SuperPenguin5495 He says it in the video...
Gas masks are one of the many things in prepping that I never hope I'll need, but when I need them they are essential. Better to have and not need than need and not have!
One thing you left out, yes these may protect somewhat against the particles of smoke, however, if you're in a smoke rich environment you NEED an oxygen supply through a tank. Large amounts of smoke in a confined space will completely displace the environment of oxygen, so even if you are getting clean air through the gasmask, you are not getting any oxygen with it, or at least a negligible amount that will not allow you to breathe. Tanks that firefighters use for example are compressed air, but there is enough oxygen in there to sustain life.
Rebreathers are now on the same level of "overkill" as n95 masks 8 months ago, who knows, they may be a good idea eventually
@@abdallahmanasrah2317 I don't think it hurts to have a SCBA if you live in an area prone to wildfires, in fact I would get an SCBA over a regular gas mask if I lived in one of those areas. I only bring it up because that section of the video is a bit misleading when he claims you can survive with a gas mask filter in dense smoke for 15 minutes, that is just not true without a SCBA.
@@axbxa you can sirvive in a CO rich environment for 15 minutes (think a stove CO leak or a smoldering bush), not an oxygen depraved atmosphere (inside an actual roaring fire)
@@abdallahmanasrah2317 Exactly my point.
@@axbxa he made the same point if I understood him correctly. I think you are both right.
THANK YOU, CP ! This is the first & ONLY detailed explanation of gas mask filters I have seen on UA-cam ! GOOD WORK !
I Concur 💪💯💪
Check out "WeaponsAndStuff93" on UA-cam. He does a ton of gas mask reviews.
He's been doing it since before the virus
Just as dude above me said, check weaponsandstuff93. He does great videos and he isn't being paid. Canadianprepper is being paid just for telling lies.
@@1brytol MIRA safety moment
Man! This is exactly what I subscribed for. Unbiased and well researched information.
It’s also very good how you take time to point out and explain small stuff.
Thanks for this quality info and video.
You are brilliant,Nat! Thanks for the options. Stay safe!
I really like your channel. Excellent content and it always stays withing the content of the title. Thanks for being so thorough
Thanks for the dive through filter ability and longevity. This is something that you realize you don't know enough about when you go to buy anything gas mask related.
I really like these comprehensive in depth videos your doing now
How good it was once recorded and how invaluable it is now 🙌🏼
ONE OF THE BEST UPGRADES FOR YOUR MASK IS TO USE A PAPR. For SIGNIFICANTLY easier breathing air flow, you can use these filters with a PAPR (powered air purifying respirator). Basically you connect filters to PAPR, connect PAPR to mask , then breathing becomes easier from the fan blower inside the papr.
Mira MB-90 is a PAPR
Looks pretty good.
Takes 8 AA batteries which lasts 12hrs for all 8. Uses two filters. And weighs less than 2lbs.
Fairly pricy at $400.
@@robertpatter5509 lmao... that's VERY reasonable for a PAPR unit. the most common PAPR is the Scott C-420 which clocks the scale at a whopping $800, the SEA SE400 is tipping the cost scale at $1,000, the 3M RRPAS comes in at $1,300. So when you compare the price of the MIRA (which CAN still use the LiSo batteries) to the other professional ones (i run a C-420 as does a good chunk of the department) the MIRA PAPR is EXTREMELY well priced and inexpensive comparatively, while still being good quality from everything I've seen from my colleagues who use the MIRA PAPR. Just something to consider, especially because most people I see prepping, don't realize they are NOT in as good of shape as they think when it comes to performing under stress in a gas mask....doesn't matter how much you can lift or how far you can run, you need to condition your lungs for a gas mask otherwise you're going to tire easily.
@@crossbowsniper Thank You for the reminder
filters are in my opinion a lot more important then gas masks, a lot of people love to splurge on gas masks but then have no money left for filters, if i was going to spend 500$ i'd probably buy a british s10 (usually between 100-200$) and use the rest of the money all on filters, for a gas mask to work at a safe and comfortable level you really dont have to spend much (ex: israeli 30$ civilian mask) whats more important really is the filters, if you're going to splurge, splurge on filters
yeah even the old soviet masks work if you can get modern filters for them (by modern I mean modern GOST filters)
@@alexandercumers1912 but some carry asbestos around the diaphram(inhale and exhale hole), in the sealant on the inside of the mask
Do you have a source of any sort for that?
@@alexandercumers1912 aslo i know that may not be a russian mask but still a general heads up
I bought a few for family a year ago...glad you've simplified this info..mine are israeli
Ive been a fan for years but the smooth jazz intro was not expected especially with the content lol. Made me laugh and I appreciate the information as always
Excellent instructional vid! clear well metered speech and concise to the point information
The early covid news coming from China pushed me to buy a gas mask and even though the virus wasn't as big of a threat as it seemed to be I'm still glad I bought a gas mask and a handful of nbc filters.
@J Turdeau Yup I was super paranoid during February but thankfully it wasn't so bad, I also have gotten into the hobby of gas mask collecting. I have two from Yugoslavia, two from Russia and an Israeli one.
@Lightning Strike Right around February gp-5s used to be like 10$ now they're around 24$ for the full kit. Hopefully they drop back down in a few months. I also managed to snag a few still functioning NBC 40mm NATO/Gost filters from sportsman's guide for like 5 bucks each. Boy am I glad I acted early because we might be needing them if things actually get bad.
@@1810jeff Do you have the right filters for all your masks? else they are useless. I to started buying masks about 3 years ago paranoid of shit to come :)
@@CyprusTM Yeah but the only one I wear is the Israeli one since it's the most comfortable and for the Yugoslavian one I have a 60mm to 40mm NATO adapter so it's all good. And the filters I have are 40mm NATO/Gost filters and I've found a reliable source for them.
@@1810jeff I had a few Israeli ones, and sold them and bought Avon FM12 and Forsheda A4 (this one is the most comfortable one i got, paid 139$ Canadian for it tho)
So Wise , Thank You . A good thing to have MANY of. Thank You for the Reminder of what WE ALL NEED , eventually
First time so early .
Learn a lot about gas mask .
Thanks for sharing this info .
Good information presented. I'll just add in as far as smoke is concerned the HEPA filters don't really offer too much protection and should be a means to assist in exiting the situation. As far as chemical irritant (CS or OC) the HEPA do a good job but will start having odor/taste after a few hours and you'll notice reduced air flow. I wear them for work and would only imagine using them on the streets to pass through or exit a location, not to enter.
Thank you for all the information in your videos 🙏🏼💚🙏🏼🌷😇
Great video! All you need to know in simple words. Thanks!
Thank you very much for letting us know about the gas mask and filters. We will have to see what is in Australia.
I have the yugo M1/M59 gas mask with a old filter and it works great, I use it mostley for spraying pesticides.
Great stuff! Perfect timing. Just got my mask and one activated carbon filter so far.
Would love more talk about decontaminating and how to do it.
Decon is not something you can do by yourself without a highly specialized setup.
@@crossbowsniper Thanks for the reply!
When I went to a medical facility (non COVID related) they made me take off this type of mask. They stated that this class of mask only filters incoming air to the person. The exhale is not filtered so they made me take off my mask for a crappy surgical mask. Just something to note.
Regarding 7:22, Hopcalite is a chemical mixture of copper oxide, manganese dioxide or manganese oxide.
So us neighbours to your east have just learned that our premiere is mulling the idea of a lockdown in the name of the Chinese cough....... got to say you were right once again. Keep up the good content and we’ll keep overlooking the fact you’re from saskabush lol
Wow I didn't know that respirator filters expired! Thanks for the heads up.
Nate you've said this in a few videos I've just been watching, and I think you need to follow up, because Mira says their P3 filter will not work for tear gas. It's in the FAQ section for that filter on their website.
This has been very helpful. Thank you.
Avon Fm-12 is a great choice too!
Thank You, very informative.
Great info on tear gas and CN gas being particulates not an actual gas, thx I did not know this.
Nice studio setup, nice lighting too....
Thanx, just the info i needed.
Great video CP!!
Very helpful and interesting info.
Excellent tutorial! I'm considering the MIRA model, but it's quite expensive.
Great video! Thank you!
This is timely, as the CDC will soon have us wearing gas mask in our car and while walking through the door of restaurants (But not once we sit down) to keep us safe from the ‘Rone.
Yes, it has been proven that while you are sitting indoors in a public place, removal of your mask for eating and drinking, actually scares away the sars2 / covid19 particles.
thewhitewolf haha yep
Exactly
Well at least those would work compared to the surgery masks that's just pure political bullshit
Hey there I'm a hazmat tech and I have to be fit tested every year. And when we wear our masks we must b we clean shaven and have the proper size mask as well. Then we get a card with the make model and size mask we were tested in.
Good information, thank you.
Man Slim I thought this video was going to blow...but I learned a couple of things I didn't know, like the length of usefulness when exposed to contaminants or just the shelf life...I wonder if those masks have an adapter for a camelback or if they come in Desert Tan, Coyote Brown or FDE...if not, well I just invented them..good video... update.. I'm stareing at the thumbnail and I see a hose hanging down I'm guessing that's a drinking adapter...
My GF wears one of those when I eat chilly.
First thing first go to a occupational medical center and get fit tested for a proper size and if you are medically sound to dawn one. Great video thank you for the info
makes the soldier keep going longer. thanks man.
Top Video man! Ty a lot
Thx bro, i just got my m50 gas mask,this is helpful!
Unfortunately M50 don't take 40mm
Thanks for the info!
Sir pls make a video on ur biceps routine, they look vascular
Thanks, I knew very little about gas masks.
Thank you 👍
I have the PMK-4 gas mask Russian army, rubberized hazmat chemical suit and hazmat boots, they are coming out with adapter hoses for Russian to 40 mm threads, the hoses allows for distant placement like in another bag or area for indirect exposure, could make a hepa filter bag than place your remote filter into that making the actual filter last longer, even a furnace filter cut up for a bag filter. in a survival SHTF longevity may be a key to long term survival when things are harder to come by. The rubberized suit came with feet or shoe soles but there not great foot wear made more for a indoor environment or to be used for a period than discarded after the operation is completed. for general uses it's great as it's washable with harsh cleaners, I cut the feet part off and will use the hazmat boots with the suit. Duck tape etc.. would be ideal to also accompany the kit loadout.
Thanks CP!
You need to do an alternative cooking methods for if the grid does down. I've seen alot of videos the last 2 weeks of people buying a crap ton of food, but not buying ways to cook if there's no water pressure, electricity, or gas lines.
Well done!
Prepper Canadian! Have you ever done a video about deworming medicine being essential? I just had pinworms and lost like 10 lbs because of it. In a survival situation that's a death sentence.
Thank you
A gas mask WILL help you if you're caught in a volcanic ash fallout storm. I used one during MT ST Helens dumped ash all over E WA. I rode in back of an open piuck-up truck with no respiratory issues wearing it.
HEPA filters' rating is actually the particulate size they are *least* effective against, they are more effective the larger or smaller particles are from the rating
thank you
That hurt seeing you open it for demonstration lol
You should have mentioned about the threads of the gas mask filters since there's 3 different 40mm threads which is STANAG (NATO thread), GOST (Warsaw Pact/Russia/Eastern European thread), and DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung or in English German institute for standardization thread). DIN threads mostly found nowadays in industrial 40mm but not all the time. STANAG filters are the most common filters but they won't fit GOST threaded masks like GP-5 and PMG. GOST filters fit all three types of threads just like DIN but it's a bit of a controversial topic among the gas mask collectors community. Same goes to the myth of 40mm standardised/normalised thread which is said used used by Israel and China but in reality, Israel uses STANAG while China uses GOST yet unlike other countries, gas masks from these countries somehow fit with any of 3 threads. You should make a vid about it or at least make a video to warn about the threads. Either way, your videos are great.
Edit: Sorry for my grammar. English is my second language.
great Video
With HEPA filter, I can imagine coming out of a fall-out shelter to go into the garage to get a tool and it reducing the dose of settled radioactive particles.
I've worn chemical carbon filter, they only handle so much and will saturate hence a good replacement schedule is important. I'd assume the most likely use is in the case of civil unrest if the police or military hit the neighborhood with tear gas.
Gas mask and civilian respirators have limits, they typically in the case of the latter have a "protection factor" of 1 to 50 to 1 to 100 with that 1 part getting through. The masks look similar (not the same) to North brand respirator hence I'd guess the "protection factor' aka exposure factor is likely similar.
I not sure if the North brand threads match NATO threads?
I only worn the masks for about 4 to 5 hours straight without a break. A means of drinking can be important. In an industrial setting you can leave the room or around to meet your biological needs.
They do make a 40mm to 3M adapters. Should you want to be able to use those. Think eBay has them.
This way your gas mask can use commercial non nbc filters.
The SGE Infinity mask is a good option combined with the 40mm to 3M adapter, NBC-77 or VKF-450 should you just want one mask that does many things.
You won't always want the nbc protection. That's where the Mira P3 filter comes in handy.
If you want one filter that does most try the NBC-77. Want smoke protection added? VKF-450.
Don't need smoke or nbc? Mira P3.
TY
Your a beast dude!
Got mine in Israel . Sad to have to carry one every day but do what you have to. I was also given a bottle of K it's too stop radiation block it from the thyroid.
Can you use those extension tubes to get the filters away from your face? It would be easier to use 2 or 3 if they were mounted to a place carrier instead of my face.
Was wondering about respirators, full face and half ones, so they work similarly? Cuz I have a few and some different cartridges. Would live an answer and confirmation I didn’t spend money on the wrong product. Cheers from a fellow Canuck
You will not have difficultys breathing when a filter witch activated carbon will expire. You will start to smell something when it expires. However the particle filter in the ABEK filter will clough and give you difficultys breathing.
So, I have a question...can we clean the filters? I was in the military before and my understanding is that filters go bad very quickly....but, in a difficult situation as a civilian, maybe we have no access to new filters, so what do we do?
They last the cheaper ones you got technically last 20 and the Myra safety 20year one lasts 25 if sealed and stored properly
Whatching this is 2023 like, weve seen 3 situations this year. Wow thats literally like 3 days in 2023
Please make a video on how to make your own filters
I stocked up on these and filters back in December. Buy extra one for the kids. They mess with things and well it could get them killed if you don’t have en extra one.
Does any other kind of gas mask work? What cheaper mask would you recommend?
How long will the Filter last in the Feel How many filters should one need to have
This guy here has all kinds of gas masks..I’m 60 year old women..i wouldn’t know which one to buy ..about the fallout dear if that comes ..it’s over..the only thing they cost too damn much !
@@tafdiz I have a big head for a women ..ty.
The only ones that I would recommend you to stay away from are soviet masks and older masks from the 40s, 50s (especially civilian masks they were usually made very cheaply)
The point of the 3 ports is for shouldering a rifle so you can move the filters so it doesn't get in the way of the gun
Ahhhhh, thats why my water Filter dient work anymore. The active coal expired, dient know that
If there is a gas that makes the person unconscious as much as they pass out will this gas mask work? What type of gas mask will be needed for those kinds of scenarios???
Do you need to keep the caps on the filters to keep it from ruining the shelf life ? How long will the filters last once you open them and have them connect to the mask ?
Nevermind…. I asked my question before watching the video in its entirety…… he answers my question in the video ! 😊
Can you please teach us how to make radiation filters for bunkers ( maybe we can make small filters for gas masks too)
Are there cheaper alternatives for these filters that do the same thing? The cost of Mira's is crazy, it makes stocking up on them impossible if you're not loaded. AU$110 for one single time use filter is extreme.
I have the Israeli gas masks filters, im wondering what the self life is for those?
If you vacuum pack an opened filter will it preserve it?
So if I want to go near an erupting volcano, the correct filter to get would be the VKF-450 Carbon Mono filter?
Would the full face gas masks in the links below work with someone that has glasses? If not what would you recommend to wear instead? I’ve read mixed reviews on a lot of gas masks some people saying their masks would fit over their glasses and some say they wouldn’t.
Depends. You can get attachments on the inside for some, but not others.
I once bought a 3m half face respirator and I wanted to use it while being in a country were is no mask rule since it had p3 abek1 filters I wasn’t allowed to use it because my family thought It looked "silly"
Well Idk in which condition the particle part of the filters is I mean I had these at the beach at well a bit high temperatures and it looks kinda crinkled
What about construction masks . Like a full face respirator with good filters particularly that 3M brand. Could you do a video on that.
I asked that above, P100 filters and a wide assortment of chemical scrubbing media for any purpose at a good price
Hello, if we were in a situation where we do not know the nature of the substances released into the air, which filter would you recommend for all eventualities being able to have only one type of filters available?
Thank you!
CBRN rated filter will cover you for all possibilities. it is designed for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear contaminates....hence the CBRN designation of the filter. keep in mind you need to act BEFORE you are exposed to any substance that was released into the air, otherwise the filter does no good for you once you're exposed.
I'd recommend an NBC-77 SOF filter, this filter also has a 20 year shelf life which is quite handy if you want to stockpile some
BEFORE INSTALLING FILTER TO YOUR MASK REMOVE THE PLUG! I read somewhere trained members of military in high stress put on the mask before pulling the plug and nearly suffocated.
Just wondering...Since the MIRA filters and masks are scarce (and the orders won't ship for like 8 weeks) because they are shipping to Ukraine, is there a DIY version we can make with activated carbon/charcoal and a trip to Home Depot? Inquiring minds wanna know!
I'm using a MIRA MB90 in an industrial environment. The one thing I have been searching for are filter canisters that allow the addition of a pre filter since I get so much dust and metal into the filter which wears it out pre maturely. If I can do this I can change the pre filter often and the particulate filter less often. I know 3M has some filters and pre filters but I don't know much about them or if they would work. Do you have any insight on products that have pre filter support?
Practically speaking, a small P3 filter is all you really need, whether it comes to viruses and nuclear dust.
Better to have many of those than few of the thicc boys.
I think if smoke or whatever you are passing through is that dense you might want to oxygen setups for use
