Hi guys, silly question of the day.

I am considering buying some used nitrous bottles from the States, but with this security & H&S malarky; will the shippers handle bottles such as this nowadays?

Thanks in anticiapation.

Ship them with the bottle valve removed. Shouldn't be a problem. Not turning to the dark side are you, Pete? :thumbright:

Plate or fogger Pete? Just get a sniper kit for a "little" help. Easy to install and use.

No deception, Pete; just want to run a solid "9". I think there would be a big clue in the trunk....

Is there a restriction on getting old bottles filled? A sort of certification date for them?
