Sig Sauer P290 Magazine Dislodge Issues While Holstered

I have a Sig Sauer P290 with a CrossBreed SuperTuck IWB and am having an issue with the magazine becoming dislodged while the weapon is holstered. The magazine release button is on the left side of the firearm and I believe it's being pressed while the weapon is being pushed against the holster while I'm sitting, etc. The magazine has not "fallen out" of the magazine well; however, this is extremely unnerving and if I'm ever in a situation where I have to unholster and present, I'm deathly afraid that the magazine will drop out as soon as I unholster.

Has anyone had similar issues and are there any recommendations? I appreciate any responses.

Ok, so I took out my supertuck with the p290 in it, studied it, tried to simulate what you're talking about, I even took photos to send you. It was only then that I realized that you're right handed, and it all started to make sense. If I were you I'd contact Crossbreed and let them know, they fix these things quickly because they like happy customers! Perhaps a little combat cutting will do the trick, I don't know.

Here's one of the pics I took when I was having blonde moments to justify my confusion!!! Image

My Sig 2022 did the same thing to me.

I appreciate the time you took to try and replicate. I will follow up with CrossBreed regarding holster modification.
