Only in Florida? Backyard swimming pool near Tampa is shaped like a six-shooter revolver.
“Neighbors that have bought houses around here have all come by,” said Minardi, who lives near Tampa. “They’re all, ‘Is this guy a whack job?’”
The family wanted a pool at least 40 feet long to allow for laps. After Louis Minardi contacted Jones, who owned A.H. Jones Pools Inc., the idea was born for the gun pool – all 55 feet of it. Jones pleaded with him to let him build the gun pool, Louis Minardi said. He said he was tired of building kidney-shaped pools, a staple of Florida’s backyards. Minardi agreed — provided he stayed within his project’s budget.
Still, gun education remains important to him. He said he’s taken his children and grandchildren hunting since they were very young. He said he did not allow them to use a gun unless they were closely supervised and had proper training.
