I vaguely remember a face mask being part of the ensemble. I think it was introduced not long before the new respirator and was worn with full noddy suit etc, less respirator.

Ah, yes! The Facelet wasn't it?

Wish I still had a respirator - love to see the faces of people at Tesco's if you wore one of those and uttered loudly: "Haven't you heard the latest?" (in suitably muffled tones, naturally!)

Aye, that's the beast D.M-L

Better still, in full AR5.

Yup, the L1A1 Remploy Facelet. You can still buy them on eBay.

Well i'd never heard of those, you learn something everyday.

I also remember someone using the facelet to collect spent brass after a day on the range, so at least it had a use.
