C'mon CM. I'm no doctor! I don't even play one on tv.

I'm betting if we'd have had these back in the 70's, someone would've been figuring out how to turn it into a bong.

Uh.....er…..um.....yeah they "Might" have....

So... Which side of the USSR did it come from? Smell of shattered dreams and tears or the proceeds of stolen profits of the workers?

 

[DoggyDaddy]

If I could be sure that fuel would stay $150 or less I would get more jugs in the mail.
I may yet do that.

I filled up the car today (about half a tank) at $1.39 a gallon after using 20 cents off per gallon. $8.50 and I had to "force" it to get that much in.

Beats me! It does have a good seal. I do know that I wouldn't want to have to wear it for very long. Hopefully it never comes to that! I'll have to have my shopping trip well planned out.

I've yet to feel a need to break out my respirator and N95 filters, but... you're making it look like fun!

As a side bonus, I've used my respirator out in the shop for over 10 years now, so it has the battle hardened appearance that I think could turn a few extra heads. Like I really had a tough drive to the store.

edit: Also, FWIW, N95 filters have expiration dates. Being that the listing for those masks said they likely came from 1988, you probably want some new filters before you actually count on them.

I don't know if Amazon ships from Russia.

I don't know if Amazon ships from Russia.

I believe the listing you originally provided said they accepted "standard" filters. I can't even begin to guess what a "standard" gas mask filter is, but, I imagine that info is out there. I started going down that road myself, and had 2 of that mask in my cart, and then I decided I'd wait for you to answer those questions for me.

Maybe overthinking that "standard"
acceptable options include
- campfire ashes
- wet moss
- rocks
- balled up socks
- enemy cigarette filters
- Spirit of Stalin
- Pride of the Soviet Union

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

Standard is likely the 40mm cartridge filters.

I go back to the black and white episodes on Saturday night theater oh so long ago. It was Dr. Who and the Dawlics back then. Every week he did battle with the early well armed R2D2's.

4 more 5 gallon poly jugs arrived today. I filled both trucks from older reserves and those empty's with the 4 new ones will be refilled tomorrow.
