High quality gas mask / face shields available in bulk - new unused - model M120 Facepiece

I came across a fire dept that is getting rid of their entire stock of new 3M M120 FacePiece which are full face shield gas masks used by firefighters. They have never been used and they are selling as a lot.

Here is a link to the product page. I'm waiting to find out the exact reason for getting rid of them, supposedly they are new and nothing wrong with them. It looks like a filter catridge would be needed or an air supply hose.

I don't know if there are many people who would want something like this it looks like a top of the line product, especially if Fire, EMS and police use them (military as well) - so filters should be easy to find as well.

I found out that these are very new (less than a year old, maybe months from what I gathered) and paid for by FEMA originally, but FEMA sent even more $$ that had to be spent (or the $ was lost) so they bought better units even though these had yet been used. Talk about government waste!

There are 20 available and they seem to be large and possible some mediums (possibly all large, I'm waiting to hear back). The large units sell on ebay for about $250 each w/o a filter and I've seen about 30 different filters available (40mm standard cartridge filter) from $20 to $100 depending on what you need to filter out, like VX or something - that is the more expensive filter...

I'd like to get one of these myself b/c it would take care of wearing safety glasses and my crappy respirator. I'm hoping the auction doesn't get alot of action, but I'm also contacting my local fire departments to see if they are interested as well in some of them.


I can't estimate what the price would be for these, but there has been very little action on the auction thus far. If you have any interest in one of these let me know. These could sell anywhere from $10 each up to $100-150, IDK (plus shipping) but these things usually don't sell real high. I'd need to know by monday morning if you are interested in getting one of these.

The bottom attachments are from the manufacturer's rep that I contacted so if you have any questions, I can forward them to the rep if you want.

This is probably a military mask or a design derived from one. The trick with these is finding filter cartridges suitable for industrial chemicals at a reasonable price. The warfare filters aren't suitable for most of the stuff we'd want the mask for in a chemistry lab. The newer masks have moved away from the 40mm NATO threads and use filter elements that are all kinds of unusual sizes (like the one pictured above). I have no idea where or even if you could get the proper filters. EDIT: I see it does use a 40mm filter. I would be interested in one of these for sure. [Edited on 3-10-2018 by Mr. Rogers]
