    Glock 38 slide width-1.3 inches

    Glock 21 slide width-1.34 inches

    Glock 23/22 gen 5 slide width 1.34 inches

    My gen5 22 slide is the same width as my Glock 21
    As an aside my gen5 Glock 22 seems to be much more shoot able than my gen 4 and will run with a WML on it.

    Interesting. Glock's website lists the Gen5 40s as 1.08" slide width, and the 45/10mm as 1.12" (with the "traditional" 9mm width being 1.00").

    You're looking at line #3 - overall width - which includes the molded in magazine well release on the Gen5s (and ambi slide releases). Slide width is line #4...

    First shots with G23 MOS with Holosun 507C X2 on a C&H v3 plate. Dot was dead on at 10 yards as installed, no adjustments were necessary.

    It was accurate and reliable with 180 grain Ranger FMJ. The thicker slide makes a noticeable difference vs a standard G23. That said a magwell to slightly extend the grip and eventually a comp would be great improvements.

    100 yard hits on B zone steel were no problem when I did my part.

    Your Sig 365 holds more ammo than your 23!
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Of course, it’s a 365 “XL” ...

    I picked up a Gen5 23 today, that slide sure is beefy compared to the Gen5 19.
