Which has the thinner grip of the two?

the G10 Police
The G10 Military

I know that some earlier versions of the Millie had a thinner G10 grips. i beleive the 440v versions had a much narrower G10 than the newer versions. I prefer the narrower grip for back pocket carry. So i am looking at the Police instead of the Military 9which I have and is to think IMO) and was wondering if anyone had any comparison side veiw pics of the two.
 
Are you talking about the thickness or the width? I can confirm that at least some of the older 440V Militaries used a thinner G-10 but thicker blade stock. Overall, they are thinner than the new models. The light is already gone here, but I can snap some crappy pix for you (no lightbox).
 
As best I can recall the Police has a thinner overall thickness (outside from scale to scale) then the Military.
 
Here you go:

Police 3 ca 0.97 cm

Military (in this case D2) ca. 1.13 cm

Best what I could get out of the light conditions right now.

BTW, here are some pics of the thickness of a new military (orange) and old school millie. The orange feels way to thick in the pocket for me. That is why i was asking if the Police g10 is any thinner:

Big difference in the pocket IMO.
