ON A SIDE NOTE

I bought some really cool vintage door handles on eBay for the shop... They used to be on an old mission house in New Mexico. Chunky old weathered brass - like they were only made way back. They have been soaking in acid for a while to get an extra worn look - now they are ready to look really antique on our shop front door.
While fixing them up I noted some scarring on the metal and my bf immediately spotted that it was due to gun shots that had hit the metal once... How rock n' roll is that ! I wonder what the story is...
