Guys, I dont buy this whole +P ammo damaging handguns argument. Ive been using it for years with no issues. Maybe its just fear-mongering to push people towards specific brands. Thoughts?

Seems like youve been lucky so far, but +P ammo can definitely wear down handguns faster. Its not fear-mongering, just a fact. Better safe than sorry.

Is it just me or does anyone else think the whole debate about +P ammunition damaging handguns is overblown? I mean, guns are meant to be used, right? Just shoot responsibly and stop worrying so much!

Seems like the article missed the mark. +P ammo damaging handguns? Please. My Glock eats +P for breakfast and still runs like a champ. Maybe its about proper maintenance, not the ammo.

Honestly, I dont buy into the whole +P ammunition damaging handguns debate. If your gun cant handle the heat, maybe its time for an upgrade. Lets not baby our firearms, theyre meant to be tough.

This article seems biased towards traditional ammo. Maybe +P ammunition is just misunderstood. How about we test it ourselves before jumping to conclusions? Whos up for a range day experiment?

This article is missing the point! +P ammo isnt the real issue here. Its all about proper maintenance. Treat your handguns right, and theyll handle any ammo you throw at them.

Proper maintenance is key, but dismissing the impact of +P ammo is naive. Its about balance between care and ammunition choice.

Is it just me, or does the whole debate about +P ammunition damaging handguns seem blown out of proportion? I mean, arent guns designed to handle different loads? Maybe were all just overthinking it.
