Simple weapon; loop (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sling

(Other definitions for sling that I've seen before include "attached to a rifle, perhaps" , "Cloth to support arm" , "shy" , "throwing implement like catapult" , "Old weapon or supporting strap" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
