To the OP, the 6" G-Code is a very nice holster if it fits your frame width.

G-code. The model for the 6" is what I use for my 5.4".

Wide tac frame or standard? My new build uses a 5" tac frame that's the same width as the slide and afraid my current GCode holster won't work.

If it's an STI Tactical frame (has a light/accessory rail) I don't believe it's the same width as the STI Unique slide (like an STI Edge is). I have an STI Tactical DS, which had a 5" STI Tactical frame and it fits in my G-Code XST with no additional modification.

My experience fitting 2011s into a G-Code XST with regards to frame width is as follows:

Standard Frame (Ex: STI Eagle) - Fits

Tactical Frame (Ex: STI Tactical DS, Marauder, DVC 3-Gun) - Fits

Wide Frame (Ex: STI Edge, DVC, Apiero) - Does NOT fit.

However, it appears one could sand the inside of the holster so the part that meets the frame is widened enough to fit. The kydex is pretty thick, and I think there would be plenty left to not worry about it. This is what I would do if I had a wide frame.
