I have been carrying a Glock G19 and Springfield XDS 45 at the 4:30 position in Alien Gear IWB holsters (both 2.0 and 3.0 versions). I have trouble with the grips of both pistols not staying flush against my back (especially the G19 - because it is taller). The grip doesn't print, but it does cause my shirt to slowly ratchet up over the grip over time. The pistol remains concealed, but over time my shirt definitely looks uneven and may give away my carry (or the repeated shirt adjusting).
I attribute this to me having a flat butt, so the holster/pistol grip rides straight vertical, not angled inward against my back. There is about a 1/2 inch (or more) gap between the grip and my back. I have had this trouble with all IWB holsters.
I am carrying the Alien Gear holster with both clips in the middle position, which give me a proper depth, but I was thinking about trying different clip positions to change the cant of the grip, but not sure that will solve this problem.
Any ideas (holster adjustments, modifications, different holster) to get a better carry concealment?
