Kurt Cobain Suicide Gun Unveiled

[In God We Trust]

If the point is to quell the "Kurt was murdered" conspiracy theorists, then I'm not sure what releasing photos of the gun is going to prove.

If he was murdered , I owe someone a case of beer. That band sucked.

Zappa is more of a "post first, think second" type of guy

Meh.

regardless of who made them, all Humpbacks are A5s.... at least from a distance.

 

[not new guy]

Yeah, Nirvana was a terrible band, that's why we're all still talking about them 20 years later. If anything they deserve our gratitude for putting the last nail in the coffin of the shitty rock hair band era.

This guy might disagree on the the last nail part

I remember when he killed himself. Summer and I was living in Amherst for college. Came home from work and all my friends were gathered at my place, mourning him. Man did they get blitzed that night. Then we hit the strippy.

I hated grunge, hated Nirvana and am not that big of a fan of Foo Fighters.

The music sucked, and the lyrics were depressing.

Still, sucks that he killed himself.

Impressive that he could do it with that shotgun. Why not just give yourself a hot load of Heroin. Seems like easier and less messy.

He did both. He injected a fatal dose of heroin and then shot himself in the head, just in case.

Who's the old lady?

 

[noddaduma]

Yeah really!!!

They make this loser out to be a music Geniuses....

Hardly......

You don't have to be good to change the status quo. Sometimes you just have to offer something different.

Sorry, the pic was too small on my screen to read the receiver markings.

Identical JMB designed gun, only built under license by Remington.

 

[jamesvt]

Maybe it's me but don't you think he could have chosen something a bit easier to suicide himself with?

He didn't have the patience to wait for the tax stamp for a SBS.

They came out before hair metal .

They came out before hair metal .

Didn't they form up before Glen Miller?

 

[warwickben]

I thought at least early 70's idk I'll ask my mom . She hung out with then after they played a show in a small hall in Wakefield .

 

[josh2600]

They came out before hair metal .

not to mention, they may have come out with some stuff in the early 90's (living on the edge?) but they didn't own MTV and the music scene like Nirvana did. Comparing the two at the time is laughable.

Now I want one. Thank you Courtney!

Junkie, erratic no talent husband offs himself with a shotgun, and what's the hosebag's solution?

Long defunct, BTW...

CeaseFire, Inc. was formed in 1995 with a stated mission to "reshape the gun violence debate in America." Infused with money from Courtney Love, the widow of rock star Curt Cobain, who committed suicide, the organization signed on the numerous high- profile celebrities and business people listed below to their advisory panel. CeaseFire runs TV Public Service Announcements with celebrities and runs print advertising in major newspapers and magazines with the message that guns are dangerous and gun ownership is a threat to family and friends. Their stated goal is to promote "handgun-free homes and families" by claiming that gun ownership is a public health threat.

I figure she offed him lols.

It's a model 11.
ETA beat me to it.

Absolutely a model 11. If you look at the left side of the receiver it lacks the magazine cuttoff lever.

Am I the only one that is thinking, Who really cares? The guy was just a singer. He was not god and he was ok. People want to make it out to be the loss of some god of music. I'm like, eh.

Terrible trigger discipline. Maybe it was an ND.

Looked all over for a fuque to give, and simply don't have one.

You can hate him and his music all you want. However, it is essentially undeniable that Nirvana single-handedly killed rock in the 90s and paved the way for an asston of bands to follow. Kurt Cobain was the face that led this change.

 

[Zappa]

A friend of mine is a home brewer and he makes his own labels.
He once ran off a batch of "Kurt Cobain Kolsch", it was described as "Very Bitter, No Head".

This... the guy opened a door to a whole new wing of rock music. Then again they probably hate all of those bands, too.

"HURR! DURR! DRUG ADDICTS **** THEM! HURR! DURR! I NEVER LIKED HIS MUSIC ANYWAYS! WHO CARES? DURRRRR!"

They're like the mummy from ATHF..

Nirvana ushered in tone of only two new music genre in the last 40+ years. Grunge/Alt rock redefined music for an entire generation and has influenced it since. That and rap are the two biggest contributions to music in the last fifty years. Rock is ded.

I love how many haters feel compelled to share their ignorance and disdain by posting about a guy they don't like. Perhaps if Frank Sinatra or John Lennon did something special you would all care to post?
