This was done to apparently dispel rumors that the gun was melted down.
Well here is the newspaper article that prompted Tom Grant to tell the world Courtney Love wanted the gun melted down. Courtney said it was to be melted down according to the article.
Also included, courtesy of The Seattle Police Department is the picture of Detective Michael Cysienski with the gun.
So.... Why (allegedly) did The Seattle Police Department come out with the picture, if as (very easily) proven here, Tom Grant is absolutely right?
