While the product looks like it should do the job, I'm glad I didn't wait until I needed it to put the filters in. The wrestling match watching me do it would be comical if it weren't needed for a serious situation. I quickly came to know that I would be dead from whatever chemical I was exposed to before I got those filters in. Also, the strap to one bag was sewed on twisted.

I just bought 4. They were all in plastic, but when I opened it, looks like it was already used.

Bought two of them a yr ago. They were both brand new, 2 extra lens for each mask, new sealed filters, headgear, carry cases. Filters where a bear to fit into the rubber cheek area but they do fit. Just scream every once in a while!! Good for smoke, burning tires, prob tear gas too. Remember seal on chin first then straps over the head & adjust. 11/16/16.

Bought one of these and one Russian gas mask.. This mask came with two sets of filters (absolutely new and sealed in plastic) plus an extras set of lenses. The bag that it came in is what you would expect for military surplus... not the cleanest but definitely cool. I have a pretty big head and the mask fits great. For just under $13.00 what's not to like??!! Would recommend any of these gas mask to people that are into having such items. Great job by BUDK !!!!

Bought four,,,family buy. Bought extra filters for all. I think once you start using a filter it is good for 12??? Hrs. The head liner in an old truck I was selling was drooping so I tore it out and sprayed several cans of rubber to replace it. Smell was not just bad but unhealthy. I tried my respirator for spray painting (nice quality). Did not work well enough to complete task. Had the idea to use my (gas) mask. INCREDIBLE!!!!! Folks say they are now good for props,,,,maybe so. But I will bet my life on it. Not kidding. I spent two hours inside a car with totally un breathable atmosphere abandoned had zero ill effects. Buying more and filters at this price. P.S. I love more than just family members,,,,,so I will share if need dictates. Good luck to all in the future!

When i received this mask it had grime and looked nasty, but i cleaned it up with a few rags and then i looked at the filters. My goodness the filters, it looked like one pair was used and i got a second pair along side it which looked at least decent. its quite bulky and the filters are a big pain to place in it took me half an hour to place both filters in and after i finished my fingers were sore from trying to place them in and those are the cons. some good things about this is the bag that it comes with that is quite large enough to fit in knives and hunting material and has an extra slot for something on the bottom end. It also has a speech part that most gas masks dont have and you wont be muffled. For the price its selling for currently its worth it honestly even if it comes in bad condition that i received you can still spruce it it but budk needs to up their game with product control

It's a functioning gas mask...for less than $13 dollars. Would I trust it against mustard gas...absolutely not. Would I use it to scare the heck out of my brother...absolutely. I put it on a spiderman head and it is now one of my favorite man cave decorations haha. In all seriousness though I have a giant head and it fits me very well. It also seems like it would work very well if you had to clean out a musty basement or something like that. It seems like it would work against tear gas but I don't have any lying around to test it at the moment. I'm making jokes but I bought extra filters so I guess having it around "just in case" does give me a certain level of comfort. The bag it comes in is a nice touch too.

They turned out a hundred times better than I thought they would be. Had no problems with assembly. Put together, tested and repacked till needed in under 30 mins

Don't try to protect yourself against anything but tear gas because that is what those filets are for. Other than that these masks are fun and make great props

Got this item today and I have to say I am pleased I tested it out on tear gas and heavy smoke and it works so great don't know why everyone says they suck it's defenitly for preparation
