Of course, I have no evidence to support that theory, other than there will definitely be a showdown with Hank. They can't have Hank get so close to discovering the truth over multiple seasons to not have him square off against Walt.
Somehow I don't think so. An epic gun battle just doesn't seem like Walt's style. I could see the gun (or a piece from it) playing some part in a harebrained scientific scheme/contraption/invention he's planning (ala the magnet, the train heist, the improvised battery, the flashbomb with Tuco, etc..). I think this would be more inline with the writer's dropping clues that are often misleading than showing us a gun that indicates that Walt is about to have a huge Scarface (though they did placed the Scarface clues as well) type sendoff.
