    Sounds like the Fudd mantra claiming buying black rifles, carrying firearms, ad nauseum are the cause of anti 2nd Amendment laws.

    The health claim is an option in most, maybe all, states.

    One of my sons gave us several N95 masks, I've been wearing homemade facemasks over them to keep them in service longer. I have settled on washing cloth mask daily (have a couple) and replacing the N95 weekly - based on my personal lifestyle.

    Dipshits driving recklessly led to speed limits.

    Dipshit food processors led to the FDA.
    And so on.
    Well, dipshits who won’t protect themselves or others in case they are asymptomatic carriers will lead to compulsory mask wearing. And I don’t feel bad about that. People need to pull their heads out of their asses.
    So dipshits with 30-round mags leading to control is different, though, right?

    The Kryptek mask looks pretty good, although the cost with shipping adds up, and more again if you buy replacement internal filters.

    The most comfortable masks I've seen are the home-sewn ones, but you have to know someone who can sew well. And you don't really know how good/bad the filtration performance is, but it's likely well below an N95.

    The earloops that are common are not comfortable. Assuming you have reasonably short hair, or straight hair if it's long, elastic behind your head is much better for actual wearing.

    I have one of the HSP ones and so far, it's the most comfortable/best that I've tried.

    Out of stock, at least at his site.
    The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.

    It's that simple.

    Yeah, that's pretty common. I tried to get a second one about 20 hours after they posted a restock on Facebook and they were already out, again.

    If it's comfortable, it's probably like N single digit. An N95 mask is quite uncomfortable to wear, less if it has an exhaust valve but that defeats the purpose of everyone wearing a mask.

    Given the weather changing, for comfort I'd probably look for a summer fishing gaiter.
