I searched and did not find this subject.
I like the left arm straight out and the right arm behind the head shooting to the left.

I have to say I'm enamoured of the old "basic start" stance ... legs apart, weapons down. From there you can do anything ... maybe that's why I like it.

Of course, the overall optimal stance would be that fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents while keeping the defender clear of the statistically traditional trajectories of return fire.

Hmm, after watching the movie a few more times this weekend, I have found that I was wrong. The stance I like is left arm over the body to shoot to the right and the right arm behind the head to shoot left.

I can't really say I have a favourite stance... Gun Kata, in a way, is a bit like dancing (with weapons, hah). it only works for me when "in motion". and in that context, I love the DuPont/Preston duel at the end.

I have to say I'm rather like a rabid fan girl in one respect, in that I love and any gun kata position that includes Christian in a suit and holding shiny weapons.
But the killer in me enjoys the underhand position he uses in the hall outside Dupont's office. I can't find a still of it, but its legs together, arms crossed, palms upward. I think. I might be wrong about the leg posotion because the shot is from the hip up.

Gotta go with Aedh on that one. Being a military man, the ability to engage from any direction and any position at a moment's notice with an economy of movement is the final answer to that question. The operative word in gun fight is 'fight', after all.
