Hello everyone, I was googling for info on the Canadian C4 mask, and stumbled across army.ca, amazing site. Then I found This forum, and what I don't understand is that this guy, finds a mask at a Garage sale, then everyone comes down on him for owning it, Alot of people collect military gear, and I mean alot. If no one did, we would not have surplus stores, correct? I mean why would someone NEED German Camo here in Canada??? just cause! thats why! Also how is a Civilian suposed to know that it is illegal to own a mask, He sees it a Garage sale and buys it no harm done, he thinks "neat" and carrys on. I noticed that in CADPAT forums here, there seems to be alot of psudo "threats" of charges etc. Alot of these people are just going about their business. and they may stumble across a original CADPAT pants or whatever. its no big deal. and redeye mentioned that where would you get filters for masks. well my friend, NATO filters of all types are avalable at 99% of army surplus stores that I have been to. and the ones that didn't could order them for me. and there is this new thing called the internet, with plenty of military sites for joe average to buy stuff. here is one in Canada http://www.celsurplus.com/prices.htm and if you scroll down to Misc. Surplus Items and the 3rd item is the Canadian C4 mask $35, oh my, I hope only real army personal can purchuse them. sorry people, anyone with the internet can!, but other than that freakin great site!!!
