I'd like to know if all of Taurus' Pistols are capable of withstanding +P+ rated ammo pressures. Huh?

This from the manual.

+p rated for duty use

All Taurus handguns are engineered to accept a steady diet of factory-new Plus-P (+P) ammunition built to SAAMI specifications. This includes the ultra-Lite hammer forged aluminum alloys, Titanium, blue steel and stainless steel models. Rest assured, your Taurus will be ready, especially when you’re counting on it. +P rated ammunition not recommended for Magnesium revolvers.

It would be interesting to know if +P+ was an issue.  I would imagine for liability reasons it would not be recommended.  But from a sheer strenght perspective if it would be much of an issue.

+P+ ammo has no spec according to SAAMI so very well work but also might be too much pressure for a given gun.
