    The greatest little piece in the business, and for half a page in your rag — she'll do it. (Deighton, 1972)
   More often as a piece of arse or ass, crackling, crumpet, goods, or skirt. Piece of buttered bun, muslin, on a fork, or of trade (a prostitute) are obsolete. A piece of gash, spare, or rump is a woman considered readily available for promiscuous copulation:
    I was day after day closeted with this choice piece of rump, and not so much as touching her, let alone squeezing or grappling. (Fraser, 1975)
   A piece on the side is a mistress. A piece of work is a smart or clever woman with other than sexual attributes in male eyes.
   2. a handgun
   Used of both cannons and personal weapons since the 16th century, and of crossbows before that. It is a shortened form of fowlingpiece or carrying piece:
    'You carry a piece?' he asked suddenly. 'Oh no,' I said, 'I don't believe in violence.' (Sanders, 1980)
    A carrying piece has got but one business. That business is killing. (Vanderhaeghe, 1997)
