Just my preference. I'll take a picture of it when I get home as an example (if I remember)
I haven't experienced that problem with C clips. I have over the belt clips for this holster and over the
belt metal clips on another holster. I find the over the belt clips to be too obvious for my liking, but to
each his own.

why not just draw it ?
i didn't realize you're such a talented artist .

See, now because of that comment, I won't
In reality though, I was at work when I drew that above. Now I'm home, so I can take real pictures :P

No, I don't normally wear my holster at 1 o'clock, but its easier to take pictures there :P
Yes, I know that the C-clips were just inserted, and not on a holster. Trust me, they do the same thing On the holster (create the huge gap). I tried them first, they just made the bulge look even bigger under my t-shirt or whatever. Plus, I don't care if people see clips on my belt. With the myriad of stuff I carry there on a daily basis (2 phones, leatherman, knife, sometimes a radio (or two!)), 2 more little clips aren't going to cause anyone to pay any attention.
Heck, during the day, I 'print' horribly with my 2 phones and leatherman under my shirt. So far, in many many years, I've never been asked if I'm carrying a gun under there
People will probably just assume I got a new case for my iphone...
Well, I read this and saw the pics of your C clips too late. Yours are much thicker than mine. Mine are 1/8"
or less thick (the part between belt and pants). Yours also have a different shape where they hold the belt.
There is not a double thickness at the "C" portion of the clips. Maybe you can see from this pic.
