If this is set up similar to other LTA airships (simplified, its bags of air contained by the outer skin with a structure supported by a very light airframe), then a wayward bullet might pierce one or two of these cells - which a certain number of these are allowed to deflate before problems begin. Also, most shot-sign mischief is carried out by shotgun and the max vertical distance it can travel is considerably less than 1000ft.
