Will pro (5") fit mp45 duty holsters?

I bought a MP40 Pro for duty use. but I would really like a light for it...

safariland does not offer a lighted holster for this gun, so for now I ordered a regular one.

my question is if anyone knows if a MP45 holster with a light setup (TLR-1 or X5L gen 2) will work for a mp40 pro

thanks!

Probably not... I think the slide is wider on the 45. And the Safariland for the 45 will not be long enough for the 5" 40 Pro.

there is usually about "5 of slack on top of the slide near the hood with my other safarilands. I was thinking it would be a tight fit, but would work.

I think the thickness is .1 or so, which is not a factor for a holster I think (they aren't precision made)

Here are dimensions

M&P45 - 1.2 x 5.5 x 7.75
M&P40 Pro - 1.2 x 5.5 x 8.5

Less than an inch of difference. hmmm
