I see the manual does not recommend +P+ ammo in the 3913, but I just want to verfiy, is 124gr +P ok? I picked up a box of the new Win PDX1 and see it is +p. Thanks for any info!

It would be fine, but I would replace the recoil spring with a new factory spring just to be safe.

When I had a 3914 I shot Cor-Bon in it as a carry load. I didn't shoot a huge amount through it, certainly not enough to find out about adverse effects on durability, but the function of the weapon was fine. Pretty cool fireball if you shot it in low light conditions too.
