Any power may come from guns etc (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

weaponry

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'come from guns etc' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'any power' is the wordplay.
'any power' can be anagrammed to 'WEAPONRY'.
But, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

'may' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for weaponry that I've seen before include "fighting equipment" , "All one's arms" , "Big guns" , "Arms; artillery" , "Arms in general" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
