Which stance is associated with holding an impact weapon partially hidden?

The interview stance is characterized by holding an impact weapon in a manner that is partially concealed, which is strategic in maintaining an approachable demeanor while still being prepared for potential threats. In this stance, the officer can engage in conversation with individuals or suspects while keeping the weapon out of plain sight, allowing for a degree of psychological control.

This stance balances readiness for action with a non-threatening appearance, making it suitable for situations where the officer needs to gather information or assess a scenario without escalating tensions unnecessarily. The other stances focus more on defensive or aggressive postures and would lead to the weapon being more visible or held in a manner indicating immediate readiness for combat, rather than maintaining an open dialogue.
