    Safariland has a new part number for their ALS holsters.

    Per my Glock armorer’s course instructor at yesterday’s class.... gen 5 22/23 have thicker slides and won’t work in earlier generation holsters.

    Regards.

    Is the slide the size of a Glock 21 or somewhere between a 17 and 21?

    I have no clue why I want one of these since I swore off 40 S&W a long time ago, but I find myself drawn to it.

    My instructor indicated that somewhere between a 17 and 21. If it's as thick as a 21 it won't interest me.

    As much as he was pushing it at my class, I'd have thought he would have brought one with him for us to horse around with.

    I'm just hoping they don't come out with one in a G45 size.......a gen 5 G22 with a G23 length slide on it. If they blue label such a thing at 398.20 I'll probably pounce even though ammo is nowhere to be found at what I'm willing to pay.

    Kinda what I figured and I agree. If it's G21 size no thanks.

    I have more 40 S&W ammo than I care to admit and the only 40 S&W gun I still own is a G22 Gen3 that I keep for sentimental reasons.

    They FINALLY get the .40 right on Gen 5? After the round has taken a dump in popularity?
    Of course, the beauty of the old glock is when you allready have a dozen Glock holsters, there is a lot of interchangeably. Now? Nope.

    I still may dump my gen 4 for a gen 5 22. Only because I have chingasos of .40 a,m squirreled away....

    It's a different part number on the Safariland chart.
