Hi Justin and welcome. Yes Sir, this model will handle +P loads no issue. Cheers and stay safe!

Hi Juan, no sir, according to the owner's manual, 1911-A1 Pistols less than 5 inches are designed to use standard pressure ball ammo and self-defense loads. +P ammunition is not recommended. Stay safe & have a great day!
