Hand-held firearm (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pistol

'hand-held firearm' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pistol that I've seen before include "Small firearm" , "Rectangular" , "Arm" , "Hand weapon" , "Type of gun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
