    Have been using 6378s for the last 6-7 years for both my g26 and g17s.
    As a longtime martial arts type who realizes a scuffle may happen before you can access your gun, I won’t use a holster without decent retention, and this model is great.
    HOWEVER - I am 6’5”, 270#, and wear only t-shirts in summer, and Hawaiian shirts the rest of the year - and have never had any concealment/printing concerns.

    I’ve got leather, IWB and OWB (Sparks).

    I’ve never been a fan of the thumb break style holsters.

    I’ve been on Safariland’s website for the last few days, looking, and researching. I’m finding out that your statement is holding true.

    I picked up this holster from Weapon Outfitters, however it is no longer listed on their website. Here is the link for the manufacturer's website.

    I have owned a lot of holsters, and I am not normally partial to plastic holsters but it is well made and fits snug against your body minimizing printing.

    For under $50.00 it may be worth a try.

    I may also have an old Safariland IWB for a Hi Power too. I really don’t associate Safariland with good CCW.
    One of my favorite holsters.
