Katy Skerrett, the senior coroner for Gloucestershire, said his body was found in an outbuilding.
"Mr Kingston was visiting his parents home in the Cotswolds on 25 February. He ate lunch with his parents," Skerrett said. "His father went out to walk the dogs. On his return, Mr Kingston was not in the house."
"After approximately 30 minutes, his mother went to look for him. His father forced entry into an outbuilding when he couldnt gain entry. Mr Kingston was found inside with a catastrophic head injury. A gun was present at the scene."
The family made the emergency call. Skerrett added, "Police are satisfied the death is not suspicious."
