With all these fires going around and the potential of house fires a quick question about gas masks.

Is the RD40 40mm thread EN-148-1 the same as the STANAG 4155 Nato thread?

Would a draeger rd 40 filter fit a MP5 Gas mask ? Or a military nbc filter fit a draeger x-plore-6300?

Edit: Just want to know if the civilian and mil spec threading is identical.

    I don’t know the details of what you are asking, but I will say that smoke has VOCs, which are gases, which means you need a gas mask. N95 or other makes will not work. It sounds like you’re looking for a gas mask aready, and I wish I could help you more. I think as long as you have some sort of gas mask, you’re probably a lot better off than someone with an n95 or surgical mask.

    Also, I’ll just add a recommendation for a box fan with an air filter ductaped to the side of it, to clear the air in your home. Or, run your house air all day if you can do that. Good luck! Wildfires are no joke. Don’t breathe the air.
