I just read an interesting article in GARDEN & GUN MAGAZINE concerning the gun that the author Ernest Hemingway used to end his life. I had always heard the it was a SxS Boss but the article' s researcher states that it was probably a W & C Scott Live Pigeon Gun that was a favourite of Hemingway.

The article further states that, after his death, the gun was taken to a local welder in Ketchum, Idaho to be cut into pieces that were then buried in a field. The researcher further states that the welding shop is still in operation being run by the grandson of the original owners and that he has a few of the pieces of the gun that are surely not from a Boss. I find this interesting & I hope that you will too.

Best Regards, George
