Range Command 'Make Ready' moves from which to Condition 1?

• A. Condition 2 to Condition 3
• B. Condition 3 to Condition 1
• C. Condition 4 to Condition 2
• D. Condition 1 to Condition 2

Answer: (B)

Make Ready is the step that brings a firearm from a pre-ready state into full readiness to fire. On the range, you start from a non-ready condition and, by making ready, perform the necessary loading and chambering so the weapon is in Condition 1 and ready to shoot. So the correct idea is moving from the prior, non-ready state to the fully ready-to-fire state. The other transitions describe moving to different states that do not reflect the action of preparing to fire.
