A handgun (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pistol

'a handgun' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pistol that I've seen before include "Shakespearean - weapon" , "Small gun" , "making an appearance in Shakespeare's King Henry V" , "Piece" , "A small hand-gun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
