This is an absolutely excellent mask. I collect gas masks and occasionally use them and I must say that this one is excellent. The lenses are tough to put on and filters are hard to install, but it is satisfying once it is all on there. This is totally worth it.

The mask fits great and and was new. The one i got was the first generation (no drink tube) and is in great condition. The bag is great! The filters however ovbiously weren't new because they didn't come in the original foil packaging. they were sealed however and a gas mask filter will retain most of it's functionality if sealed at a later date and kept in a dry climate. Tip on filter installation - put back in first and work it to the front. Snap the holes on the nose to the top buttons and make sure bottom of nose is on TOP of bottom rubber. Overall: Great buy!

These masks are a good buy. The bag is good and the mask was 1971 stamped in new condition. Filters look a little dusty but look in good condition. Good fit and function but had no drink tube. This mask will make a good riot tool in case of the marshall law that is surely coming for America!! Buy your whole family 1 and be glad you did.

I was a bit leery when I first ordered this product, but once I received them my doubt was put aside. this is one great product at a very great price. If you’re looking for a gasmask the search is over. I ordered two of them the only drawback that I could find is that CTD don't have the replacement filters. But at his price it’s not really a problem.

Just received two masks. The masks were apparently new sealed in plastic bags and the bags were cloth and in excellent shape. Unfortunately no drinking tubes, but knew that was a possibility up front. My regret is I trusted Cheaper Than Dirt's write up instead of doing my own research. It took very little research to discover that the reviews indicating these masks are not effective for NBC issues are entirely correct. Sure the price is great, but since I would have paid more to get what I wanted they are useless and can't be returned. I guess the bags will be useful.

I ordered this item on a Friday and it shipped the same day. With the cheapest shipping option, I received it the following Wednesday, so kudos to CTD's fast shipping. Now, on to the mask: I received it in a nice canvas sack with the mask, filters, and replacement goggles. The mask was in surprisingly good quality and fit great, with no fogging which is more than I can say for the other Finn mask I own. The filters are nearly impossible for me to install, and upon reading the other reviews I see I'm not alone. It took me a good 15 minutes to finally muscle one filter in, but once you learn how to do it the installation takes significantly less time. Everything seems to be in good condition and of good quality and I look forward to using this for painting projects in the near future, however considering my particular mask was dated 11/1979, I would be wary about using it to actually protect against chemical/biological/nuclear agents. Overall this is a great product and I heartily recommend it to anyone looking for a beefed-up respirator for painting, a show piece, or just for fun.

Just got 2 of these today. Thank You CTD!! And like the other reviews have told you the eyeplates and filters are a pain to install. Tip: make sure the mask is warm so the rubber is more plyable. Also make sure the 4 white buttons above the filters are snapped over the holes and the nose holes go over the top set of buttons. This will hold the nose opening wide open. And most of all; buy some of these. This is the real deal and very high quality!

I ordered 2 of these masks, and they are excellent! The 2 I got appeared brand new, and work very well. Once the filters are in the mask (a little difficult) and the check valves installed on them, they breathe well, do not fog up, and protect you from just about any contaminant. A must have for the time they start dropping bombs on us! Another fine acquisition from cheaper than dirt!

I bought three of these masks. I put all three of them completely together with filters and all. If you are low on cash and think you may ever get tear gassed, maced or pepper sprayed this may be the mask for you!! if you are seriously trying to have some kind of real Protective posture against the NBC "apocalypse" I don’t think this mask will help you much. WHY so many of these masks/filters were made and do not protect against NBC makes no sense to me, maybe they did protect against NBC when they were made 30-40 years ago. I still gave it 4 bullets though because a riot gas protective mask for this price is a good deal.

I was just browsing this site because I love the magazine and I found this mask. I read the reviews, and they were mostly good. I checked it with the list of gas masks not to be used and it wasn't there, so that was good. I looked at the price, and all the cool things you get, just the bag is worth it, so I had to buy it. It just came in this morning 3 days after I ordered it. This mask is sharp looking, I really like it, and it fits well(smells like a rubber ducky). The bag is in great shape, but the "new-sealed filters" don't look so new, they look used and dirty. I'm afraid to use the filters, I'll probably buy new ones. But all-in-all I really liked my buy, with everything included, and the price, It was well worth it, and I recommend it to everyone, just be careful about using the filters.

This mask seals very well, you can’t get extra filters so I bought 2. When you get the mask it may seem when you try to breath you will suffocate, but breathe in real hard and it will clear. Then you need to reseal the filters with a good sandwich bag and a zip tie.

This is an excellent piece of hardware. It came in a perfect canvas bag. Everything was in immaculate condition. My personal opinion is that this is way better than the Fin masks. It has an even weight distribution as opposed to having a filter hanging out one side. There is plenty of space inside for glasses and still a tight fitting seal. Replacement filters run about 7.50 which ironically is the same price as CTD has the masks for. But this is still a must have for anyone that would rather have ‘em and not need ‘em than need ‘em and not have ‘em.

I did not buy mine from this website, however it is almost identical to the one featured.(no drink tube) I used it without any filters, to remove a dead skunk from the entrance to my driveway and I could not smell a thing, and everyone knows that the odor of a skunk(especially a dead one) is extremely strong, especially at such a close range. However, with my gas mask, I could not smell anything other than the familiar odor of a surplus warehouse...

The masks are in good condition however the ones I received weren’t in working order. They take a small amount of tinkering before you can use them. The valve to the filter needed to be reversed you couldn’t get any air through it. It wasn’t hard but I have no idea why they would be like that. Over all worth the money but I will be trying the Finnish next time. Also the filters are fine but a bit sketch. I hope I never have to use them in an emergency

My mask came in good condition without a drink tube. It came in a cloth bag of similar design as the Finnish gas mask bag, but was in worse condition (the inner pockets had partially detached from the main bag). No complaints in this respect (I was expecting some weird rubberized bag). My only problem with the mask is that it does not seal properly. At the top of the mask (around forehead level) there is a point where it won't contact the head. I am trying to let it passively correct itself by storing it with the upper part pushed into the mask. I’m not sure whether it’s because the mask was stored for so long or whether it is a size too large. For $7.50, you really can’t complain.

I wasnt sure which mask to get so I got 1 Fin & 1 Czech. BOTH are very good! Both came with canvas pouch. To compare them, I like the single screw on filter of the "Fin" BUT the Czech comes with extra eyelens with rubber flaps that slip over the crimped on lenses that they both have.The Fin is a little smaller but they both seem easy to wear and quick to adjust. The Czech would take a little extra time to get the filters in but it seems like it could be done in around 1 min. vs like 10 secs to put the filter on the Fin. After having both in my hands I'm probably gonna order a cpl more Fins but, if they werent in stock, I would gladly take a cpl Czech's. For this price its like buying the filters on sale and getting free masks.

Compairing the two masks
Reviewer: Bitter Psychompop
5.0 Rating
9/16/2009

I've purchased both this mask and the Finnish model, and here are some notes on the differences between the two: The bags: Finnish by a mile. The Finnish bag is made of sturdy canvas with quick release snaps on the outside, a couple of sewn in compartments on the inside held shut with a canvas flap that snaps closed with regular metal snaps. Feels good, looks good, and it will probably be my next caving bag. Next CTD order might include a few more Finnish masks just for the bags and give the gas masks away. The OM10's bag is waterproofed, has two separate compartments, and is slightly larger. The major point loss comes from the hard to use snaps on both compartments and the flimsy feeling straps. They look and feel like they're made from duct tape and the clips and slide are made of plastic. Neither bags are essential to the value of the mask, but it's just a little added bonus. The masks: Comfort: OM10. Fits my face better (your mileage may vary), less resistance on the exhale. I wear glasses, and neither will fit, but there's more room in the front of the OM10 if you want to mount an old pair then. You might also be able to slip the lenses between Ease of use: Finnish by a mile. A child could figure out how to attach the filter, and if you get your hands on extra filters, they can be replaced without taking the mask off. The OM10 requires jamming it into the inside of the mask, fumbling with plastic snaps to keep it in place, and then screwing the one-way vents on to the outside. Quality of filtering: I don't have the equipment to compare, but the gut reaction leans to the Finnish model. The fact that it comes with neutralization chemicals and wipes makes me think that it was more optimized for serious threats. I wouldn't trust either for NBC, but the odds of that are low enough that worrying about it is a waste. I'm much more likely to need it for things like smoke, or cleaning out a moldy basement, and would trust both of them equally. For use as a costume/airsoft/paintball accessory: OM10. The Finnish mask looks weird without the filter, and unless you want to cut it open and take the filter material out of the cartridge, it's hard to breathe while moving around. The OM10 can be used without the filters, and the design of it is such that it's easy to remove the one-way valves but keep the fittings in place. Caveat: I bought the Finnish mask for a costume, but I needed the specific look and I'm going to retrofit it for comfort. Both get 5 out of 5, because both offer a good deal for the value. Pick whichever one suits you, or just get both. If I ordered another, it'll be the Finnish mask, simply because of the bag. If I order a dozen, it'll be the OM10 simply because I'm a cheep bastard.

got 2 both look new with drink tubes extra lens caps cantine cap and foil sealed filters. the powder stuff on it that everyone speaks of is so the rubber dont stick to itself just like a box of rubber gloves.every thing was in as new shape. the only drawback i found was the filters are such a tight fit they are hard to get in. if you ever need this you better have the filters in it first cause it takes about 5 mins to put them in.

I ordered three masks. only 2 came with outer lens covers. Only 1 had a drinking tube(drink tube isn't that important to me). What upsets me is that only 1 had filters in the foil packaging. The other to were as far as i can tell opened and then resealed in plastic. one of the resealed filters actually looks rusted and completely un-usable. so unless I can find filters somewhere 2 of the masks as far as I'm concerned are useless. On the bright side the rubber is in good condition and the bag is pretty cool. If the filters were in foil this would be a great deal(5 bullets).

Awesome Deal

I ordered 6 of these and they arrived the next day. 4 look brand new and unissued and have the drink tubes. The other 2 look to be in great shape, but the filters were only sealed in plastic, not foil and plastic like the first 4. These look to be very usable masks if the need arises. Only problem I have is that extra filters can't be found anywhere. I guess I'll have to buy some more just to get the filters.

Picked up one of these for my son to use for Airsoft. Planning on gutting the filters so as to retain the original look but to make it easier to breath when playing (not sure if breathing through 19 year old filters would be a good idea anyway, even though they were brand new and packed in airtight foil, and again in sealed plastic) Came with the drink tube adapter, and the second lenses as well as the new filters, a white residue on the mask itself, cleaned off with a little soapy water and some scrubbing. Over all, a great deal for what we wanted it for!

I have read that these things are absolutely worthless. I ordered two of them to see if I can find some new filters to make them useful. The filters are too old to be of any use and they say they aren't for NBC use. Personally I won't be using the old filters that are 20-30yrs old. They can, by themselves, be harmful. I will try to see if I can track down filters that will fit this thing though that are REALLY new, not just in a 30yr-old sealed bag. Would make for a good shop mask though if you can get dust filters to fit.

Mine are all new and in unissued condition. But the rubber materials are degrading, so ya gotta do some preservation work to stop the rotting process. The coin shaped rubber flap valves may need to be replaced with fresh rubber washers - or at least gather the replacement parts so you can do repairs as needed. Disassemble and study it in detail. Wash it completely before you insert filters. Filters are OLD, perhaps create new filters for it. Drinking tubes don't work as they are - something is missing and I don't get it. But still a great investment.

Okay first off it got here FAST.about a day ahead of schedule which is always nice. The bag for it is o.d. green rubber canvas which is durable and water proof. The bag itself holds both the mask,filters,a few rounds of ammo and some various other items including the spare lenses. Also it has the components for a hydration bladder to fit on tightly. the mask itself was in good condition save for the slight degrade in the rubber but nothin to serious.u rub it and a little bit of powdery stuff comes off.either way a good wash and scrub and it's clean.There is no instruction manual but you don't really need on as it's so simple to put together.I love it!so not a waste of cash.

I've had my mask for several months now and just now got around to writing a review. For the price there really is nothing to complain about, you just can't beat that price for a working gas mask. It works great if you are painting or burning lots of smokey brush. However, it is worth mentioning that the description says it can be warn with glasses. This is both true and false, it does fit over glasses, but it cannot properly seal around the temples. I've tried this with numerous styles of eyeglasses and sunglasses and it would not seal for any of them. So if you are nearly blind like I am and you want this mask as a safety device you may want to look into getting contacts.

They create a perfect airtight seal around the face, they're totally adjustable AND the green durable rubberized carrying case comes with an extra compartment in the case AND they come with 2 extra eye window pieces that fit perfectly over the existing ones creating a double paned effect -- I suspect that's for safety's sake.

Do your research if you are looking for a serious mask, these are only effective against Tear Gas. Also be aware that some older expired filters contain chromium toxicity and could be dangerous (I have found no data that says these ones do however). Other than that good for the price. The Israeli M-15 with a new M95 filter is the best cheapest option.

Well, I was a little skeptical at first, but after tearing into the first one I was very impressed. All 6 of mine came with drinking tubes but, the other 2 that i ordered without bags,(not sure why I did that) dont have drinking tubes. I recommend ordering one of these and one of the other 10 dollar finnish mask, the bag is alot better and it comes with extras, or it did in my case, some cleaning powder and a blue rag in a vaccuum bag, all and all, these masks are excellent. To put them together its pretty simple the filters are left and right and go inside the mask where the cheek is, you fit the seal around the hole and then screw in the other part and it will flush up the seal on the filter. The eye pieces need to be attached by folding back the rubber seal and working them around the lenses. I am still searching for a good bottle to attach the drinking tube adapter to. I highly recommend rinsing the masks out before you install the filters and also rinse the drinking tube, otherwise your in for a surprise flavored drink.

Ordered numerous masks and was fortunate enough to get them all w/ drinking tubes. Only one bag had a bit of dirt and one had a duct tape label with a #2 on it. The bags seem to be descent water resistant quality material. Despite some of the reviews, I found the filters easy to put in after a little messing around (wide end first). The rubber is resilient, comfortable and forms a good seal. The "extra" lenses go over the original lenses (took a glass of whiskey to figure that one out). Got these for a SHTF scenario, and for use while working (maybe Halloween too). Well worth $10. Researched filter availability, and they seem inexpensive and easy to get. Only reason I didn't give it 5 bullets is because I haven't had anyone spray me with any chemical agents yet, and I don't plan on testing it near any fallout to see how well it performs.

If you want one of these masks get the cheaper one without the bag. The bag went in the garbage because half the buttons were rusted off. The extra eye lenses actually go on a chemical hood so you cant use them with the mask. The only good thing i can say is the mask was sealed in a plastic bag with a drink tube, new i would assume, with only ONE set of sealed filters, an insert that fits into a water bottle for the drink tube, and the screw caps that hold the filters in.

I used the M17A1 mask during my entire 6 years on duty in the US Army, and was trained as my unit's NBC (Nuc, bio, chem) specialist . This mask is nearly identical to the M17A1, except no drinking tube. Not a huge issue if you've been trained on decontamination and drinking in a hazardous environment. I paid more for my mask, and about the same for lesser masks (Israeli civilian and Russian civilian) I own. If you can't get the mask to seal, you probably didn't get the filters installed correctly. (cover the air outlet with your hands and blow, cover the air inlets and suck. The mask should collapse on your face if sealed properly). Tilt your rifle 45 degrees to use iron sights. The filters are good for 12 hours, before you should find a clear area to change filters.

Great mask for the price, but, like others have said, the filters took me about 3 tests to get it air-tight, and I noticed I couldn't sight down my rifle with it on. A good mask though once set up, and if don't need to change the filters in a contaminated area.

It does what it says. The only downside, should the situation arise, you cannot remove and replace the filters without taking the mask off unlike masks with external filters.

OM10 filters

The OM10 gas mask checks out to be a good serviceable mask. One major problem are the filters. They are difficult to install, although once installed properly they work well. The second and more serious concern is that the mask must be removed in order to change filters. A NATO ( Isreali for example) filtered mask allows the filter to be changed while the mask is on. This could be a serious or fatal problem. RenfrewB

This is a Soviet era knock off of the US Army M17A1 mask. This mask works well for well for most (N)BC agents . I am one of the two folks who helped create one of the primary treatments [MOfibA]for Chem Weapons Exposure in use world wide. I have field tested this and dozens of different types of masks and this is one i tend to reccomend to folks who take my course in civil disorder medical treatment. A better mask is the current US Army mask or the US Navy mask. Good points Wide field of view Shatterproof lenses Vocal resonator DRINKING TUBE Great air flow Light weight easily changeable filters with N filters available

Had it shipped to work, and got some strange looks when it came in. But I'd rather have it, and not need it, than need it, and not have it. It is in remarkably good condition for surplus equipment. Worth the $$.
