This mask is not current issue, but it has been kept in storage and retains its flexibility. As this is a previous issue and has been in storage, I cannot certify that it will keep you safe in a CBRNE nvironment, but it is good for reenactments, cosplay, decoration, or whatever else you might think of. The picture shown is of a stock photo, yours will come sealed in its original box, and will probably contain more items, to include a brand new filter in its original canister. The filter will be the C2A1 model.
