'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[Combi-Bolter]] handheld firearm wielded by [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]] during the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
The weapon was once a simple [[Legionary]] [[Bolter]] until the [[Primarch]] [[Vulkan]] reworked it to form an outsized but perfectly balanced pistol suitable for the hand of the Wolf King. Though Russ and his Legion often stood apart from their fellows during the [[Great Crusade]], this gift was one of honour, given after the two Primarchs' legions fought the bitter campaign at [[San Katos]] together, and Russ held it and its giver in high regard.{{Fn|3}}
===Note===Though [[forgeworld]] and the [[The Horus Heresy (Game)| Horus Heresy]] game has described Scornspitter as a [[Combi-Bolter]], it has also been portrayed by [[joytoy]] as as a revolver weapon, not dissimilar to the [[Bolt Revolver]]'s of the [[Kin]].{{Fn|4}}
