Pistol or rifle (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gun

This clue is a double definition.

'pistol' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'rifle' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for gun that I've seen before include "What has barrel" , "Platform from which to shoot" , "Hired killer" , "An offensive weapon" , "Hand weapon" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the King Feature Syndicate, the Irish Times (Simplex) and the Newsday.com.
