How do you possibly brandish a Garand while it is “strapped to your back”?
Slung over his shoulder possibly?
Still wouldn’t be brandishing.

My understanding is that some other teens saw him with the rifle, and were admiring it when the police stopped to talk to him. So, he was carrying it across his back originally, but I think he may have unslung it to show it to the other teens.
