Yup, don't know how many times it has to be said.. IT'S THE BELT. :)

To be exact, 13. :supergrin:
Get a better belt.
Get a gun belt.
Just make sure it's a gun belt.
Yup, your belt sucks.
it is about the wrong belt
A good leather carry belt will prevent this.
Wilderness Belt...CSM model...1-1/2" or 1-3/4" wide...good-bye sag.
wilderness CSM 1 1/2'' belt
I wouldn't use one for a carry belt.
A good belt will make a world of difference.
You need a better belt.
It's your belt.
 
That belt is for holding up jeans, not a gun. Get a gunbelt.
OK, I believe that I have spent adequate time searching for previous threads, prior to starting a new one. If I failed, please forgive me.

Yesterday, I was wearing my Glock Sport Holster with a 27 in it, left side about 0830. I noticed that the front of the holster was sagging, taking the belt down with it, because the next forward belt loop was in front of the opening for the front pocket. That is quite a distance to support a gun and holster. I cinched my belt (Cabela's Last Chance nylon) tighter, but it did not help. I changed belts, to a heavy, leather belt, but the only change was that the leather belt supported the sag better, but still sagged. I looked at several different brands of jeans and the only pair that had closer belt loop spacing was Carhartt.

Is there a solution that I am missing?
 
Aside from the gun belt issue (which is probably the best fix), you could always take your pants to a tailor and have them either move or add belt loops where you want.
I've also found that subcompact guns (especially hi caps) can be a little top heavy & cause flop when carried OWB, no matter how good the belt & holster combo are. My solutions have been to go w/a compact sized gun, instead (G23) or try a holster specifically designed for a compact sized holster. The extra holster length adds some stability as it presses against the leg/hip. Of course, IWB might be a good option, too.
