With all these fires going around and the potential of house fires a quick question about gas masks.

Is the RD40 40mm thread EN-148-1 the same as the STANAG 4155 Nato thread?

Would a draeger rd 40 filter fit a MP5 Gas mask ? Or a military nbc filter fit a draeger x-plore-6300?

Edit: Just want to know if the civilian and mil spec threading is identical.

A respirator would be better Against fire

You mean like an actual fire fighter respirator? 😨

Sounds a bit much and heavy for quickly getting down the stairways without inhaling too much fumes. Its not like I want to drive my axe into all flat‘s doors and pull out other people 🫣

Nah, you don't need hours air, https://www.jendcosafety.com/msa-premaire-cadet-combination-supplied-air-respirator-with-escape-cylinder-kits/ might be a better idea or this one https://www.jendcosafety.com/msa-transaire-escape-respirator-5-minute-10-minute/
