| Clip from holster is digging into leather seat
Just got a IWB, and love it so far. Noticed however that the one clip closest to the back is causing damage to the seats. I'm wearing it in the 4:30 postion, any advice on modifying the clip ?
Thanks in advance.

Kinda hard to say with knowing what the holster is exactly. This is a perfect example of showing that what one gets thinking it's "the one" doesn't always turn out as so. Often takes multiple holsters to find that one that does all you require without such issue.

| Crossbreed has three types of clips. One like yours and two that go under/behind the belt. They are sold in pairs, but you could use just one for the closest to the back that is causing the problem.

All depends on the exact holster. I have a cheap uncle mikes for my P22, and a fairly upscale Galco UDC for my Sig P239. Neither has anything that can dig a seat.
Maybe shop around.

Slide it around to 2 O'clock position when you get in the car, and it will also give you faster access if you ever need to pull it.

That's just another reason I don't like holsters with slide on clips. I'd rather have leather loops, the same color as my belt, that have the one way snaps or a Remora.

If its a Crossbreed, replace the metal clips with kydex ones. Comp-tac and Tommy Theiss both sell them.
