weapons of mass destruction should not get into hostile hands
certain countries use weapons of mass destruction as a deterant to war, while some countries use weapons of mass destruction to threaten war. If these weapons of mass destruction get into the wrong hands of say extremists with an agenda, it is the duty of the world to take the weapons of mass destruction out of their hands.
United states of America and the tiny state of Israel have weapons of mass destruction to protect themselves. When the soviet union broke apart, all the weapons of mass destruction in the former soviet union became vulnerable to theft. We no longer know who owns what.
Weapons of mass destruction stolen include: chemical and biological weapons, nuclear materials, and certain hardware like parts and electronics.
Lord of War and other movies portrayed the high value in theft and the desire for countries to aqquire weapons of mass destruction, even at the cost of the lives of their own people.
Obtaining a biological mask may be futile if everything is contaminated for hundreds of years with nuclear material. If its chemical warfare, you may have a chance.

Very Early Polish OM-14 Gas Mask Collection Update
This mask is a very early 1950s OM-14 from Poland. This mask is very similar to the WW2 Russian SM-1. Mask is badly discolored and wrinkled. Comes complete with large filter, black rubber hose with rotary fittings, and a carrying bag. I believe the filter to be from a later date than the mask though. An interesting and very difficult to find mask.

Lederschutzmaske GM17 WW1 German Gas Mask Collection Update
This is a Lederschutzmaske that I was able to get recently. The leather on the outside of the mask is looking old, but overall, the mask is still in decent condition. The rubberized backing remains intact and flexible. Even the support string for the filter assembly is still present, although broken in the middle from the tension. A very cool and unusual mask.

Inside Chernobyl’s Sarcophagus 2 of 5
The Chernobyl disaster was a nuclear reactor accident that occurred on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine (then part of the Soviet Union). It is considered to be the worst nuclear power plant disaster in history and the only level 7 event on the International Nuclear Event Scale. It resulted in a severe release of radioactivity following a massive power excursion that destroyed the reactor. Most deaths from the accident were caused by radiation poisoning.
On 26 April 1986 at 01:23 a.m. (UTC 3) reactor number four at the Chernobyl plant, near Prypiat in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, exploded. Further explosions and the resulting fire sent a plume of highly radioactive fallout into the atmosphere and over an extensive geographical area. Four hundred times more fallout was released than had been by the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
The plume drifted over large parts of the western Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and Northern Europe, with some nuclear rain falling as far away as Ireland. Large areas in Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia were badly contaminated, resulting in the evacuation and resettlement of over 336,000 people. According to official post-Soviet data, about 60% of the radioactive fallout landed in Belarus.
The accident raised concerns about the safety of the Soviet nuclear power industry as well as nuclear power in general, slowing its expansion for a number of years while forcing the Soviet government to become less secretive.
The countries of Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus have been burdened with the continuing and substantial decontamination and health care costs of the Chernobyl accident. It is difficult to accurately quantify the number of deaths caused by the events at Chernobyl, as over time it becomes harder to determine whether a death has been caused by exposure to radiation.
The 2005 report prepared by the Chernobyl Forum, led by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and World Health Organization (WHO), attributed 56 direct deaths (47 accident workers, and nine children with thyroid cancer), and estimated that there may be 4,000 extra cancer deaths among the approximately 600,000 most highly exposed people. Although the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone and certain limited areas remain off limits, the majority of affected areas are now considered safe for settlement and economic activity.

Perhaps even old soviet nuclear warheads…

http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/MIL1200-1.html
this is a surplus gasmask review from cheaper than dirt…not much more to say but that it comes sealed and with one canister to use which im sure is outdated… definitely buy a 60 to 40 mm adapter to use nato cans on it or else ur fucked…
