Before I got my Eagle Defender OWB from K&D I used a Dillon rig as a temp fix for my 226 SIG ...... it was not too bad but - the K&D is IMO as tight holding in as any IWB - and so much depends I think on the design and placment of the ''ears'' and slots in those.

Mine is 2 1/2 years now into daily use and has of course well bedded in - and yet still I have the reassuring slight contact pressure of the grips against my lower ribs.

So - IMO it is not OWB that is the problem - it is simply down to good design. I have posted pics before of my rig, and that was on a crummy old belt too - and yet even so it shows as being tight in. The only difference I see compared with IWB is that I have to cover the holster lower portion. No biggie for me at all.
