I have an MCU-2P gas mask, size M, and it feels like there is some leakage around the forehead when I inhale, and tightening the straps doesn't seem to help...is this a size question? Is so, should I go smaller or larger?

Did you test it with the filter in place, and your palm over the opening on the filter while inhaling?If you tested it this way and the straps were completely tight,and your hair was not in the face line,and it still leaked,then you need to go to a small.If you tested it by exhaling,re-test with the above method,you should not be able to get any air if the fit is correct.
