Bluedreaux,
Please clarify "ready"
Arms extended, pistol lowered out of line of sight, or elbows bent, pistol in toward the body, or other?
I'll take a pic tonight and post it so we're all on the same page.
Basically, it's a "compressed ready" or "high ready". Pistol pulled against basically the bottom of the sternum, pointed downrange, elbows bent and against the sides of your body.
