Strike the tents and shoot through? (6)
I believe the answer is:
decamp
'strike' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't see how one could define the other.
'tents and shoot through?' is the wordplay.
'tents' becomes 'camp'.
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'shoot through?' becomes 'de' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'camp' put after 'de' is 'DECAMP'.
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for decamp that I've seen before include "Leave suddenly" , "Abscond" , "Bolt" , "Fold up tent and depart" , "Fold tents and go" .)
