Just mirroring what has already been said, but the info I have is that glocks were designed around 124 gr +P+ sub gun ammo.

The Glock was "designed around" NATO 9mm specification ammunition for a NATO signatory's military. While the actual measurements and specifications are handled much differently than the SAAMI method, it's essentially a 9mm +p round.

I'm not saying Glocks will detonate if you shoot +p+ ammunition through them, just that the original design parameter was based on a known pistol ammunition standard applicable to the target customer.
