🇩🇪 West German Dräger M8 Industrial and Police Gas mask with a Dräger plastic tin
The M8 gas mask is one of the rarest clones of the German M65 gas mask, though this particular model is an improvement of the earlier German Kareta Gas mask, which also utilizes black rubber
The outlet cover of this mask is a standard light grey cover used on many German industrial gas masks from the early to late 1960s, with the Dräger Protex and Simplex utilizing it.
This mask is yet another wonderful mask from the mighty Pixelproductions_100, who is likely my main supplier of European masks from now on.
The head harness to this mask is a standard rubber Dräger harness dated 1963, which is quite early as the M8 was supposedly developed in 1965.
The M8 was used mainly by Riot Police as an alternative to standard Military Gas masks such as the Kareta and M65 series masks, though these masks would eventually make it to the Middle East much like Kareta and Kareta M masks.
The only known examples I am aware of in collectors' hands are this model and one in the hands of OmegaBabushka if I remember correctly, this is quite a scarce mask.
