14 November- Solution for the last clue and the next cryptic crossword clue



Weapon I raise is grabbed by Field Marshall (7)
Solution – firearm

The first part of this clue is straightforward – Weapon = firearm

I raise = I + rear
And that is "grabbed by" ie surrounded by FM for Field Marshall.

F + I + rear+ M = firearm



Today’s cryptic crossword clue solution tomorrow
Insincere, each person in revue (7)
Source of clue – NZ Herald

Hint - the solution has one word contained in another ie it is a container clue.  A word meaning "each person" will be found in another word meaning "revue".
