Hands on me for any reason, I would file a complaint. Was it all the way concealed, how did he know you had a firearm?
I would have done an immediate mag dump on him. That would have taught him a valuable lesson. I bet he would never try that stunt again.

I must have forgot the purple. Thought it was obvious.
My complaint would be filed in the form of a spinning back fist. When he finally woke up, I hope someone would be there to let him know what he did wrong so he could learn his lesson.
The nerve of some people.
This is like listening to kids talk after they come out of their first lesson at "Karate" class. Thinking they are all bad to the BONE.
"I would do this, and then this, and this this, and then whip out my nunchucks..."
This is possibly the best thread ever.
Adult men sharing fictional stories of how they would handle a midget touching their gun in a walmart, as violently as possible.
The only common denominator? They are all awesome in their own imaginations.
I LOVE THIS.
I'll give you that. And what I would do is entirely dependent on the situation. Because I haven't seen the man in question, I can only go on the picture I've drawn in my head from the descriptions here. From that mental picture, I just can't fathom considering him a threat worthy of any more than grabbing the offending gun-grabbing hand, not in some wrist lock or with the intent to take him down, but just putting my hand on his to keep the gun firmly in the holster, peacefully getting separation, and discussing the issue with him and his supervisor/manager. If he has social issues, he really does need to be educated and coached that what he did is inappropriate and dangerous, but not the way some here have described it. Now if I were a 90 year old woman for whom this guy constituted a valid threat, that would be different. I'm old and feeble, but not old and feeble enough to feel threatened by the guy in the image I've drawn in my head of this man.
That's exactly what should have happened, educate! I would have asked to see the manage, told him what happened and ask that he instruct his people that touching someone else, whether its a gun or body parts is not good idea.
Exactly this.Glad he wasn't trying to take it!
What's with people thinking that its ok to just come up and touch someone's stuff (firearm or otherwise)??
Once: You effectively were Open Carrying. "Hey, Mister" was fair enough warning. Check your mind-set. Twice: keep your cart between you and any "threat." When carrying, nearly everyone has potential of being your "threat." You should have "carted" him onto his ass.
