Auto ordnance Thompson 45+P?

Are the Thompson Auto Ordnance 1927-A1 long guns rated for 45+P? I have a box of 45+P rounds to shoot up and i wasn't sure if my Thompson could fire them or not.

They don't mention +P ammo.
They only say to shoot 230 grain, brass cased, ball ammo.

I'd recommend contacting them and asking before shooting any +P....

I did give them a call and they said Yes the Thompson is +P rated but not to shoot +P all the time cause it will wear the components out faster obviously.
