Yes, this RIA GI in 38 super can shoot +P ammunition with no issues. Just know +P ammo can cause premature wear on internals if you feed it a steady diet of the higher pressure round.
Yes, according to the RIA (Armscor) website FAQ's, all of their firearms are +P rated! "Yes all of our guns are +p ammo ready, but please use only when necessary."
Hi Phillip and welcome. Yes Sir, All Rock Island pistols are +P rated. Due to higher pressures, please increase maintenance and inspection frequency due to possible accelerated wear and tear. If planning to use +P often, I recommend installing a higher lb recoil spring to reduce recoil and frame battering. Cheers and stay safe!
