'a shot off the legs?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'can leg shot' is the wordplay.
'shot' indicates an anagram.
'can'+'leg'='canleg'
'canleg' with letters rearranged gives 'GLANCE'.

'be' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for glance that I've seen before include "A quick sideways look" , "Swift look" , "fly off" , "Glimpse" , "Momentary look" .)

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