My only objections with the gas mask idea is you are going to sweat to death with it on at Blanding if you go that route. I was there for the "Revenge of a Nerd game" in June is it was really, really hot that weekend. They had a few people get sick from the heat. So for the design I would incorporate something like what everyone else is said, put the respirator piece on the side of the mask so it does not restrict airflow into your mask. Like some one said before with the lenses, gas mask have tiny little lenses to look through, and that's going to restrict your field of view.

I agree 100%

Im not going to have it look exactly like the real-deal (even though it is, lol) I will probably remove the air filter completely (though a hose could provide nice acess to a camelback hose..hmmmm....)

Needless to say, its going to take alot of modification to make is usable, especially in Florida. Im also probably going to cut air holes all over it. Its going to look diffrent, but hopefully still as intimidating. probably going to be best used in the winter months (all 2 weeks of it, here in FL)

Ill make sure i show yall when im done, and especially thanks for all the pics/links


I just bought a Soviet/Rusky GP-5 on ebay. It comes with the filter and all, but i doubt ill use it.

My next task is to find the ASTM standards without paying $40+ for them,
to make sure my mask will be legal at Blanding

Re: soviet mask idea

Sorry to be a thread necromancer here, but I've been thinking about this for a while and think i may have a solution to the heat problem. You can pick up small computer fans for only a couple of dollars a unit and easily hook them up using a 12v battery. Depending on the style of gas mask you are using or more practically what you are sticking onto your existing paintball mask, you could easily stick one of these inside the air canister. Here is a pic of what one of the fans look like.



It would probably work best for this style of mask and you could set the fan up to blow air directly onto your face and not have to worry about air blowing up into your eyes because the goggles and seperate to the mask. Of course if you had a canister on either side of your mask you could have two.



People have used fans like these as replacements for retail mask fans and are known to be quite quiet and cheap to maintain. Anyway, thats just my thoughts. Again, sorry to raise the thread form the dead again.
