Holding Gun Barrel with LEFT Hand


Any thoughts? Being that he was left-handed, what would have come natural to him would be to pull the trigger with the left fingers, hold the barrel with the right.

He would probably pull the trigger with his left hand, but that isn't really evidence that screams murder. It's a shame when the new pictures were released last year, people thought he had a recoil blister, when really that was his left hand burnt from being around the barrel. This movie shows the bullet shell couldn't have been where it was unless it bounced off someone...like a crouching Cali too stupid to pay attention to where the shell ended up.

He wasn't left handed.

The biggest thing from the shotgun is the shell plus the way he held it. pay attention to that part again

I think he might have been ambidextrous. He played guitar left handed, but he wrote with his right.

Kurt was left handed when he played his guitar and right handed when he wrote.

From what I've seen of people that use both hands, their dominant hand is the one that they write with so it is plausible that Kurt would have used his right hand to pull the trigger, if he indeed did pull the trigger.

Cobain was right handed.

Check out the footage in MOH, with him as a toddler. He does everything with this right hand, including writing. Also, as an adult, there is a lot of footage of him doing again everything with his right hand: holding a cigarette, using the lighter, writing, holding and arranging his music sheets etc.

There are also photos of him holding guns with the right hand and using his right eye to aim (so even his dominant eye was the right one).

The only thing that he did as a lefty was playing his guitar. And this was even when he was a toddler, so it wasn't some pretentious statement or something that he developed later in his life.

This is pretty strange, but not completely extraordinary. It happens that, even if we use one hand for most things, there can be the odd thing that we do with the “other” hand. I am left handed, and there is no way I can force myself to play guitar right-handed. I actually do 99% of everything with my left hand (or left foot or left eye). However, I write texts on my phone with the right hand!! This never ceases to amaze me!
