That part of a firearm behind the barrel or bore (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

breech

(Other definitions for breech that I've seen before include "(Half of) lower garment" , "type of delivery" , "Lower part of a gun" , "Rear part of rifle" , "Opening for loading a gun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
