My apologies for the reupload, I edited this to avoid promulgating a stupid error regarding right hand canister Light Anti Gas Respirators, they did exist!

Good vid i have a right filter one too with red filter in the listing said it was from one of the SAS Regiment barracks forgot which one I think was 21st one I understand people will lie to make it more viewed and get people to buy it but he seemed genuine as he knew exactly where he got it from.

I'm likewise always wary of stuff sold on as SAS kit but a nice thing to have none the less. If the filter was marked witha red band that means it was used for training.

I prefer the modern British army rifle doctrine. Just make everyone learn right handed. And I can say with certainty as a left hander who shoots right handed with the L85 that it doesn’t degrade accuracy or ease of use as long as you have been trained to use it. It’s like taking a leftie and training them for 12months non stop only writing right handed, they will get it eventually

[@RiflemanMoore]

Forcing left-handed people to write right-handed has a significant effect on their brain function and may well have long term negative effects, which is why it was stopped in schools quite some time ago. Aiming and firing a rifle does not require so much fine motor skill in the hand, so presumably doesn't present any of these negative effects.

Was this mask only used by the sas?

[@RiflemanMoore]

No, it was standard issue.
