Comb you rushed to the bag to get (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ransack

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

'comb' is the definition.
(I know that comb can be written as ransack)

'rushed to the bag to get' is the wordplay.
'rushed' becomes 'ran'.
'to the bag' becomes 'sac' (a small bag).
'to get' becomes 'k' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'ran'+'sac'+'k'='RANSACK'

'you' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ransack that I've seen before include "Go through a place causing damage and stealing things" , "Search thoroughly - pillage" , "Loot or search thoroughly" , "Turn upside down in searching" , "Examine thoroughly" .)
