Good advice.

Also good advice, I do the same with mine. It WILL come out if I snap my hand just a little when its upside down, but just up and down motion without much snap, it will stay. I would guess its safe to say I like mine slightly loose, It still has retention, just not as much as it came with. You'll find your sweet spot- give it a little more time and try out a few more things.

I am 6'1 160lbs. I'm certainly not a "fat boy", and it digs a little bit into my butt cheek area where the leather tabs are as well, where the bolts stick out. I have found that if I back the clips out a few turns, it really makes a difference. I did this last week and it helped me out a lot. I have not had a chance to get moleskin, but seems like a good solution.
About the holding power of the holster.. I have my bottom tension screw all the way in, and the top one, I have loosened up some (maybe 2 full turns, unsure exactly how much, not a whole lot) so I dont pull my belt up to my armpit when I try to draw like mentioned before. It still will retain the weapon when held upside down, and is loose enough for me now, that I have no problem getting it out.
Additional info: I have full FBI cant, the tabs are NOT reversed. (Takes it too far below belt for good grip...for me anyhow)
