The last thread I found was 3 years old so figured I would start another.
I have known the country is going to hell but the BS with the AG this week made me realize how fast it is going there. It has really opened my eyes to how ill prepared I really am. I am making a list of things and prioritizing them... One thing I want to get for my wife, son, and I is some gas masks. I am mostly looking for defense against tear gas and pepper spray. I don't have the money to invest in full out chem gear and if we get to that point sucking on the barrel of a gun is probably the only real way out. I am looking for help/ suggestions on what to get and maybe where. All the supplies in the world are useless if someone can lob some gas in and wait you out.
One question I have is would a full face respirator work and if so what filters? Ideally if a respirator would work I would prefer to go that route because I could really use one for work and in my home shop. What do you guys think or what do you have?
I am not starting from scratch, I didn't just wake up this morning and decide to start prepping and the first thing I need to get is a gas mask. I am just lacking in some of the "hardware" that I think will be important to have in the kit.
