The 4040 slide appears slightly larger and fits a bit tighter in the holsters.
Congrats on the nice-looking 4040PD! Fantastic carry piece for a 40 cal (my personal favorite), it manages recoil nicely and conceals just as easily as a 3913. You can definitely tell the difference in the dimensions though, it's more robust than a 3913, but works in my leather holsters as well (just a bit more snug).

Brand new Delrin grips are a pain to fit on the 4040 frame, very tight at the heel. I've found that the darker gray, non-dimpled 3913 grips seem to fit the 4040 better (for whatever reason). If you are looking to add some night sights, Trijicon SA15's are the way to go.
