Will a Glock 22 fit a Glock 17 holster?
There is a paddle holster made by iTac defense for a Glock 17. I have a Glock 22 and they don't make just the paddle holster for a Glock 22. My question is, if I buy this holster for the Glock 17 will my Glock 22 fit it or do I have to buy one just for the 22, because I know that all Glocks are the same size if I'm not mistaken....any gun experts I would appreciate your feedback here. Thanks!
Here's the link for the holster....

The short answer is, yes-- the holster will fit both the G22 and G17.
Glocks come in 4 sizes-- Full, Compact, Subcompact and Competition. There is also a single Subcompact Slimline .45 (G36).
In addition to these basic sizes, there are what's commonly referred to as "large" and "small" framed Glocks. As a general rule of thumb (especially for Full Sized pistols, as per the G17 and G22), the 9mm, .357 Sig and .40 all share the same dimensions and are considered "small" frames. The .45 ACP and 10mm sit on the "large" frames. (I have ignored the pointless calibers, for simplicity.)
The G17 and G22 are dimensionally the same, and accessories (holsters and mag pouches) are typically offered to universally fit models 17/19/22/23. Indeed, the G22 even accepts G17 magazines-- hence the reasonably popular conversion kits on the market.
All of that said-- I also have a G22 and a G17, and my holster of choice is made by Blackhawk! While both pistols fit the exact same holster, some adjustment of the tension screw is required to keep the drawstroke the same. This indicates that while a pistol will fit, it may be a bit looser or tighter, depending.
