Good point

IANAL but brandishing is a term (and I did not look it up in a dictionary) but refers to showing a weapon in a 'fashion to alarm'. That was not the case here even though it probably was not a good idea to let him see the weapon. Once in a while things do not go as planned and that is the case here. You said you placed the gun in a strong box in your car. There is only a remote chance the valet was a criminal and I am sure your gun was safe. I am sure you verified it was there when you returned and all is good and you gave him an extra tip. Plant your corn early!
