Up for sale is a Soviet GP-5 gas mask, equipped with a radiation filter. It has sealed glass eye pieces, and can operate in all weather and withstand temperatures from -40 degrees (Celsius and Fahrenheit) to 114 °C (237 °F) (174 Fahrenheit). They were originally made to protect the wearer from radioactive fallout during the Cold War and were distributed to most fallout shelters. The GP-5 was made famous for its apparent use in Chernobyl after the nuclear disaster. They have recently been tested to see if they have NBC protective capabilities, and it was concluded that the mask will last in an NBC situation for 24 hours. They are a favorite of gas mask collectors because they have the "old" circular eyepieces like masks used in WWII and the "helmet" type masks.It comes from the Soviet Military Surplus Warehouse.
