Shoulder and the neck, best bits of an oinker. (Off topic but same for deer).
Wasted by too many on lots of game hunting to just take the easy bits.

I've got a dozen disposable P2 masks that have been in the garage for what must be 10 years.
Thoughts?

Filter Life Expectancy
It is difficult to determine the exact life expectancy of a filter cartridge. This is because of a number of variable factors. These include the wearers breathing rate, the characteristics and level of contaminant, the length of time a user is exposed to a contaminant. Environmental conditions should also be taken into account such as temperature and humidity which could also affect a wearers breathing rate. Saturated or used cartridges will leak trace amounts of contaminants to the wearer which may be detected via odour, taste, and/or irritation – if a contaminant can be detected by any of these means by the user, then filter cartridges should be changed immediately.
