New gasmask+can pick-up...

[Fabe]

Hi Guys - here's my latest gear purchase - my 4th gasmask / can set - and looks like with original straps(?) (very rare to find them with original strap, here in Hungary) - and the price was a steal: 65 EU for the set.

I don't have the item yet - so seller's pics for now:



Cheers,
Fabe

Very nice one Fabe !!

Indeed not expensive !!, as far as I can see the straps are original (and almost worth the money you paid for the set !!)

I especially like the combination of black and green rubber used on the mask !

THX Tom, I'm looking forward picking it up tomorrow...I'll update with any further markings, etc.

Cheers

UPDATE:

Ok, I got the set today...
2 added bonuses, which were not on the seller's pics:
- 2 sets of 1940 dated spare lenses
- retaining spring

Sorry for the bad photos - I dropped my camera a while ago, and the macro function is out-of-whack. The close-up shots are clear enough. I'll be getting a new camera at the end of this year...

Markings - Can:

On the outsite closing latch: "frn 43"
On the spare lense holder: "K G B" (within a tri-angle) and "43" under it

Alu sheet tube is present.

Mask: Best mask I have - like new, both mask and filter is in very good condition, rubber is soft. As Tom said; olive green paint + black rubber (so now I have 2 olive green ones and 2 blue + black rubber).

Markins - mask (size 2):

On the nose: "bmw" and "42" within a circle
On the eye-lenses: 1942 date
Inside the mask: "aqd" and also a letter "H" within a small circle, WaA eagle "22" in red ink

Markins - filter:
"FE 41"
"bwz" and "Fe"
"42" (date I think)
WaA eagle "C19" (?) with blue ink
"?2158" with blue ink

PICS:


and my 4 sets all together:



For these sets, I still need 3 lense-cleaning clothes and 1 spring, otherwise complete...

Cheers,
Fabe
