Dated? PA doesn't even mention 'brandishing'. Fortunately (or unfortunately) LEOs have the generic and all-encompassing fallback "Disorderly Conduct"
Quote:
a) Offense defined.--A person is guilty of disorderly conduct if, with intent to cause public inconvenience, annoyance or alarm, or recklessly creating a risk thereof, he:
(1) engages in fighting or threatening, or in violent or tumultuous behavior;
(2) makes unreasonable noise;
(3) uses obscene language, or makes an obscene gesture; or
(4) creates a hazardous or physically offensive condition by any act which serves no legitimate purpose of the actor.

I've heard a few NRA-sanctioned trainers and LEOs say stuff like "Yeah open carry is legal but make Granny nervous in the grocery store and they'll charge you with (or, you're guilty of) disorderly conduct."
Heavy Sigh....
Thanks Gary, your efforts are outstanding and appreciated...
