LD.
They are the exact same frame size. In fact you can buy a conversion barrel that drops in and turns your .40 into a 9mm. They are pretty inexpensive. All you need is the conversion barrel and some 9mm mags and you are good to go.

Kerzactly, as far as I know. Seems the gen 5 has had some dimensions played with but gens 2,3 & 4 of 9 & 40 fit the same in closely molded kydex holsters.

Yes, the SLIDE size was significantly increased on the Gen 5 Model 22. It is a full 3 ounces heavier than gen 2-4, now essentially the same slide height and width dimension as the 20/21 slides.
I have two of them (standard and MOS), Happily they fit nicely in the hundreds of 20/21 holsters out there.

Yes, looks like the gen 5 22,23 slide width increased by .080" from 1" to 1.080".
That cold change some holster fit but shows Glock is on the ball for needed or increased dimensions.

The Gen 5 model 22 will NOT fit into any factory injection molded type holsters currently marketed for model 17 Gen 1-5 or model 22 Gen 2-4.
It will however fit for example in the Blackhawk line of 20/21 holsters.

This was my EDC when I was a plain clothes Detective. I still carry the G27 from time to time. Most days now it’s the G43 with Shield Arms 9 round mags, or my P365XL with 12+1 in the pistol, and a 15 round spare in my off side pocket.

That is extremely close to what I carried as a Detective Ron.
I was issued a Compact M&P .40.
I carried it w/a spare mag along with a pocket knife, and mini flashlight.
I always had my S&W J Frame 442 in my front left (non dominant) side pocket.
That way if there was an unknown contact, or someone I was not sure about, I could have a full firing grip on my J Frame while appearing to simply have my hand casually in my pocket. Once I determined that they were not a threat, I simply removed my hand and went on with business. This simple method eliminated a lot of complaints, versus having your hand visible on your gun which was on your belt.
