so, u ordered the tank, and when u got it, it had a dent? I'd get it rehydroed immediatly, b/c that hydro date on the bottle most likly was from the factory, and that dent probably came from shipping. So make sure it's safe. When those things shatter...it's not pretty.

As long as they are not deep, it is fine.

I imagine that the compression would send some shrapnel (sp?), so you could show everyone your stump of a foot and brag "Yeah, my nitro tank shattered..."

I have tons of marks and stuff. My local paintball shopowner said that it's fine, as long as they are not deep.
