Description: Normal 0 21 false false false SR-LATN-RS X-NONE X-NONE Original Authentic WWI French Army ARS Gas Mask Canister 1917 ATTENTION: Dear Customers, you will receive exactly the same item which you see on the pictures, not similar or other. Please read the description carefully and review the photos. This is an authentic WWI French Army ARS Gas Mask Canister from 1917, made in France. It is a rare and valuable collectible item for militaria enthusiasts. The canister has been repainted. These were issued to all personnel throughout the war. In 1916, the French military began experimenting with copying and upgrading the GM15. Originally the prototype that would become the ARS, known as the MCG, had a face blank made from a layer of rubberized cloth and no Tissot deflectors. Because of fogging and the inability of the mask to resist tear gas, the MCG was updated to include Tissot deflectors and a backing of cloth boiled in linseed oil. Also added to the MCG was the same head harness as that on the M2. In January 1917, the upgraded MCG was adopted as the ARS, but issues with supplying made it so that the mask started to be delivered to the army only in February 1918. It would continue to see service in the French army even after the First World War with over 5,270,000 examples being produced.
