I've been carrying with a G-Code holster for several years now, and have transitioned from my USP for daily carry, to my 1911.
Unfortunately, I'm running into a serious problem - the holster is pressing down on my enlarged magazine release and dropping the magazines when I sit in my car.
One of the reasons I have an enlarged mag release is because I'm left handed - it's a lot easier for me to drop the mag with my middle finger with a large release than with a smaller one, and speeds up my reloading time; when I'm not firing, my fingers are still to either side of it, so there's no danger of accidentally releasing it.
On THR I got some snarky answers like "you should just reinstall the standard release and learn to deal with it"
I tried calling Comp-Tac and Sidearmor and neither of them could help me out.
Do you guys have any suggestions? I preffer a paddle holster to a belt loop one, kydex to leather, but at this point I'm willing to look at anything.
