The official version is that Kurt Cobain's death was a suicide. On the death certificate the coroner listed a "contact perforating shotgun wound to the head" as the cause of death and ruled it a suicide.

Some people believe that Cobain's death was a murder rather than a suicide. Many of those who hold with this school of thought also believe Courtney Love may have had something to do with it, potentially to get custody of their daughter, Frances Bean Cobain. Cobain's friends and family are also divided on the subject.

The following evidence is claimed to be ambiguous and to cast doubt on the suicide:

- Kurt was left handed and the gun was found in his right hand.
- There were no legible fingerprints on the gun.
- The second part of the "suicide" note is questioned by handwriting experts.
- Kurt had an overdose of heroin in his system which could have rendered him physically incapable of shooting himself.
- A man passed a lie detector test while stating that Courtney Love had previously offered money for him to kill Kurt (which he declined).

Kurt Cobain shot himself with a Remington Model 11, 20 gauge shotgun, according to police reports and investigators.

However, according to popular conspiracy theory, there is a great deal of speculation to suggest that Kurt Cobain did NOT kill himself, especially by gunshot. Read more at the link provided below.

A Remington model 11 shotgun, semi-automatic (based on the Browning A5 or Auto-5 hump-back design). Cobain's shotgun was 20 gauge and the shells he used were standard two-and-three-quarters inch birdshot loads. The gun was old; this model of shotgun was only made 1905 to 1947. Apparently one of Cobain's good friends bought it used at a sporting goods store, purchasing it for Cobain at his request a month or so before he died.

A shotgun... injected himself with three times the normal dose of heroin and put the shotgun head in his mouth and pulled the trigger.

He shot himself in the head with a shot gun, but many believe that it was a homicide because he had too much heroin in his system to operate a shotgun.
