Release mechanism (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trigger

'release mechanism' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for trigger that I've seen before include "Releasing device" , "prompt" , "Start" , "Lever on gun" , "Gun firing device" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
