    Gas - Gas - Gas

    Have you factored in MOPP gear into your preps?

    What are you using? Why?

    Anything from Level A suits to a N95 mask, and a rain-poncho is fair game.

    MSA Millenniums with 40mm adapters, sealed MOPP suits for me and wife, and shelter-in-place materials plus compressed air to create 8 hours+ of overpressure for one room. Stored sodium hypochlorite powder to make decon solution, and large plastic pans and sprayers to deliver it.

    The plan is dependent on the scenario. Persistent agent, liquid contamination of the area=bug out and decon. No liquid contamination, SIP and monitor the WMD-CST talkgroup and see what's what.

    Mopp barrier suits with gloves and sealing tape, Canadian Mil-spec masks with Scott MPC Plus Cartridge #805557-02, 5 Mil plastic sheets pre cut to the size of the window and door of the safe room with Guerrilla duct tape, one "Hundred" pound bottle of compressed air with a guaged bleeder. Everything but the air bottle is stored in a tote in the safe room.

    No kidding, where - I still have old M117 masks that require you to take the whole thing apart to change filters.
    Glocks are functional tools and nothing else, hence they have no soul - Rob S.

    Here's a site I just pulled up on Google, http://www.armygasmasks.com/category-s/3.htm, I like the look of it plus I can get replacement filters for at least one mask I have. They have MCU2/P for $160 including carrier and C2 can. http://www.armygasmasks.com/U-S-Mili.../aaagas-60.htm

    No store can beat the prices you can get on Ebay. Just be careful and do your homework. You can find brand new or used current issued masks from 50 to 75 bucks, often with all kinds of extras.

    Hell, I even found live atropine injectors on ebay...

    MOPP gear was not designed to totally save your life in an NBC attack. It will mearly keep you in the fight longer.

    Intentionally a little vague there aren't we? Your statement is mostly BS.

    Let me be more clear then. A direct NBC attack you have little chance of making it without eventually feeling effects. Antropine injectors are stabbed into the thigh to raise heart rate and speed chemicals through the body. Then you will later use the diazapan to slow heart rate down. Then you will need to move to a safe area. You will then need to go through a decontamination area discarding all but your pro mask for new mopp gear.

    I don't think that my statement was BS. An indirect attack you might be okay. Most people wouldn't use the Antropine if needed. A lot of people have no training in this area. Like i said, it will mearly keep you in the fight longer.

    I am incorrect on the drug part
