abstract
  • Sphinx Systems Limited is a small Swiss based manufacturer of high quality pistols used mainly by special forces, elite police units and sports shooters. The company has been in business since 1876. Sphinx is best known for its ongoing development of the original Czech designed CZ-75 pistol, which has been evolved into the S2000 and S3000 designs. Sphinx started its work with pistols based on the CZ-75 design when they redesigned the AT-84 pistol, a first evolution of the CZ-75 that had been developed in Switzerland by a competitor who later went out of business. Sphinx manufactures all pistols in Switzerland, slides are made from solid billet steel, frames from casts, forgings or also from billet, and fits each pistol with high quality barrels. Each pistol part is machined to very close tolerances and assembled by Sphinx master gunsmiths. All Sphinx pistols except the AT380 are shipped with an actual test target, which confirms the accuracy of each pistol. Sphinx pistols are not mass produced and are fitted to tight tolerances, so Sphinx pistols are more expensive than mass produced products. Historically imported by SILE corporation, SPHINX products are now imported by SABRE Defence Industries.
