Something used to injure, defeat or destroy (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

weapon

(Other definitions for weapon that I've seen before include "Eg, sword or gun" , "Device for offence/defence" , "Device to inflict harm, gun or sword" , "Means of fighting" , "shooter, say" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
