This is a question about the mechanical function of a pistol, not about velocity or even if this really matters. If you don't think it matters than simply move on. People change spring weights, people focus on certain ammo pressures or bullet weights all in the name of reliability. The question is, has there been a test that runs defensive pistols with different ammo to see if the increased pressure of +p has an effect on the reliability of a pistol? This, in my opinion, matters a lot. There are hundreds of thousands of new gun owners, many will most likely limp wrist a pistol if they do not have experience. I saw two new gun owners at a range in VT shooting a Glock 45 and a M&P in 9mm two weekends ago, one of the guys didn't have issues and the other one caused several malfunctions from what looked like limp wristing. To an average or above average shooter and gun owner it may seem irrelevant to focus on things like this. I truly believe these two people represent the many who are now gun owners but not gun people. So again, if anyone has seen a test conducted please let me know. I have not been able to find one and I wouldn't know how to set one up.
