Gentlemen & ladies,
Like most things in life, I am average, and shooting is no different for me. I can shoot a .45 casing out of a target with my Glock 19 within 5 shots on any given day, but I'm nothing special (this will be an important detail later...)
My dearest wife insisted on a handgun for my birthday, and I really didn't see any that I had to have --- after all, I've got my Glocks, 1911's and plenty of others. I have become quite bored with most handgun offerings these days, I own an example of most of the popular, and not-so-popular, offerings, so I didn't need anything. Pressed to make a decision, I asked the salesman for "something unique, something unlike anything I've ever seen before." He almost let me walk before pulling out a SPHINX SDP Compact from the case. And then the raving began, I now know what he was on about....
This weapon is AMAZING! The limiting factor in most cases is not the weapon, but the individual using it. I thought I had reached my pinnacle and that I could never be any more accurate --- turns out, I was mistaken. Maybe it's the low-bore axis combined with the very comfortable high grip, full length rail, and precise Swiss engineering, hell I don't know, nor do I really care, but if you review the pictures attached below, you will see that by my 15th shot, I was pretty deadly at 25 feet (5 shots, back-to-back at a regular tempo that you could cover up with your thumb), which is way further than I would typically practice.
If you haven't seen or heard the Sphinx, neither had I, but now you must check it out. Pardon my long winded details, but I'd have been remiss not to share my experience with this community of firearms enthusiasts . On paper, it may appear just an overpriced (could have 2x Glocks for the price of one) Swiss made CZ, but it is truly an exceptional firearm that sets a new benchmark for compact-sized accuracy. More models and configurations to hit our shores soon.
