I have two solar pool heating panels and accompaning valves, electronics, etc... that I would like to sell or trade for gun(s) or gun stuff. These are the black rubber ("tactical" ) mats with tubes running through them that heat the pool during the day, and cool it at night, when appropriate. They can be installed on your roof or on an angled ground surfaceThey have not been used in a while and are rolled up in a storage building. I don't remember the exact measurements but I think they are each 4'x35'. Supposedly it is enought to heat a 30-40k gallon pool. I had them both on an 18k gallon pool, and it was toasty warm , but we moved and had to replace the roof, and I didn't feel like reinstalling them on the old house and our new house is a 2 story.
These were only exposed to the elements for 1 year. You will need to add some roof mastic (glue), PVC pipe and perhaps a couple of new $10 thermal sensors to install the system. The system has to be picked up in Arlington, TX. I'll help you load it (it is not a one man job) and explain how to install it(2-3 man job to install on the roof, 1-2 man job on ground level). I'll add in my labor to help with the install, but only on a REALLY NICE trade and within a reasonable distance.
This pool heater cost over $2000 new. I don't think they cost quite that much now, so all trade an/or purchase offers will be given serious consideration. My wife wants these gone and I'd rather get a gun out of the deal than cash, since she won't let me buy another gun right now, but won't make me sell a gun either.
I like pretty much anything long or short that goes BANG with a preference for Semi-Autos! I love 1911s & XDs and would love to get an AR. Even if I don't want what you offer, I might still take the trade as it would take up less room than the pool heater. I have 2 boys and a third on the way, so any youth sized guns would be ok as well (no single shots please - I've got plenty of those). Other items of interest: electronic hearing protection, spotting scope, .45/.40 turrett type reloading setup, gun safe/security cabinet/good power tools, hot-tub, pool slide, ammo (new or reloads) 9mm/.40/.45 .
You can add cash to a low value trade, or I can add cash for a high value trade. You decide what this is worth to you and let me know.
If your'e out of state and want to make the drive we'll work something out for an FFL on this end if needed.

No pics available. It would look like two huge rolls of black stuff and a pox of pool parts.
BTW: The closest thing I could find to this is $1420 new and I'm NOT expecting to get that.
