I, too, have not heard of the "+p++" proofing ...

I will try to call the tech line some time this week and get an answer. However, I'd need to see a credible picture of such markings to at least even start to believe it.
As a side note, the Glock brand takes its quality so seriously that the ones made in GA are made on the very same brands of machines as those in Austria. So much the "same" that even the power supply (North American) is converted for voltage and frequency PRIOR to entry into the facility, so that the identical machines can run 100% as those in the European electrical grid. While I have not personally toured the facillity, this came from a source I trust who, as an armorer trainer, has toured and viewed for himself. Once inside the building, you'd never know you were not in Austria because all equipment is identical and operated to the very same specifications, right down to the power supply.
