Which statement best describes Type 2 brandishing of a firearm?

• A. Brandishing a firearm in any place.
• B. Brandishing a firearm in a public place only.
• C. Brandishing a firearm is never allowed.
• D. Brandishing a firearm only during a lawful drill.

Answer: (B)

Type 2 brandishing is defined by where the firearm is displayed—the public setting. The key idea is that the display occurs in a place where members of the public can observe, which is what makes it fit this category. Emphasizing the public location helps differentiate it from brandishing in private spaces or controlled contexts. That’s why describing it as brandishing a firearm in a public place only correctly captures this type. The other options either widen the setting beyond public places, claim it’s never allowed, or limit it to lawful drills, none of which match the public-location focus of Type 2.
