Comfortable with arms raised (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snug

'comfortable' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'arms raised' is the wordplay.
'arms' becomes 'guns ' (gun is a kind of arm).
'raised' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (going up in a down clue).
'guns' backwards is 'SNUG'.

'with' is the link.

(Other definitions for snug that I've seen before include "Cosy retreat" , "Comfy and cosy like bug in rug" , "Comfortabel with guns" , "Bar parlour - comfortably placed" , "Cosy and comfortable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Telegraph.
