Apologies in advance for the crappy cell phone pics.
So I purchased a Crye Precision Low Profile Belt with a Blade-Tech holster. I'm working on a setting up a battle belt, and I ordered gen 3 Molle Loks on Blade-Tech's TMMS System for interfacing the holster with the Crye belt's PALS grid. Unfortunately, it appears that the Molle Loks were designed to be mounted to 3-rows of PALS instead of the 2-rows present on the Crye Belt. When I attempted to draw my handgun, the holster would ride up in the PALS. 
Not good. 
So I got some narrow zip ties and threaded them through the holes in the Molle Loks, just below the top row of PALS webbing. 
...and two sets for good measure. 
Trimmed to fit, leaving just a little bit of zip tie hanging out in case it comes loose a notch or two. 
...and now, no more holster riding up. 
I haven't gone shooting with it yet, but in performing some practice draws, it feels solid. 
Hope this helps anyone having similar issues.

Those zip ties may break at some point...you can buy the short bladetech molle-Lok set on eBay for $10.99 free shipping |

I wanted to drop the holster lower than the belt, hence why I used the longer Molle Loks.
