AIWB holsters have differences built into them different from carrying IWB at 3 or 4 o'clock. Looking for an AIWB to carry at 4 o'clock may not get you what you really need.
Yea, I'm noticing that, also when I was looking at Garrett Industry Silent Thunders a while back. I picked up the Shield with a Sticky holster, sort of to protect it when storing it and have experimented with it at AIWB and 4oclock. Because it's clipless, I've noticed sometimes a cant makes it more comfy for me at AIWB-- might be bc of my small frame and wanting it to be comfy when sitting with a 30" waist. Posture is also important too, I find.

The extension thing appealed for the 4oclock because when it's there, the butt of the grip pokes out. It looks easily removable if I ultimately dislike it and move it to AIWB.
