TWO HANDED CARRY ("THE READY CARRY")

Whether you’re right or left-handed, this is the safest carry option because it provides the most control. With both hands, rest the firearm across your body with the muzzle pointed toward the sky. Make sure there’s nobody on that side of you. This position is also known as the ‘ready carry’ because from it, you can quickly get yourself into shooting position.
