Back to the original topic, someone on another forum asked: "I'm assuming both the 18 and 16rd [magazines] he [from Post #3] is referring to is for the CZ75 and will stick out the bottom? I'm guessing there is no mag from CZ that will flush-fit, lock in place, and clear the ejectors in an SDP? Thus, we're stuck with the $50+ Sphinx mags?"

Any idea of when the full size production models will be available as of yet?

  • Currently the only solid release dates I have available is for the Sub-compact which will be out in the next 2-3 weeks or sooner.
  • No solid release date as of this time for the full size production models.

Thank you FrontSight for the frequent updates. I live in California so the window of opportunity is closing on purchasing a full size Sphinx SDP. Hopefully I can get a full size Sphinx before the end of the year but I suspect my chances are rather slim.

I just received my subcompact. It's a beautiful gun, the quality is incredible both inside and out. It feels great. It is very consistent and accurate and it is a natural pointer for me. The shape of the lower is very very nice.

But, I'd like to tune the trigger a little. The SA is a crisp 4.5 lbs with a lovely short and tactile reset. However, I'd like to drop .5-.75 lbs. The DA stacks real bad and is very heavy I estimate over 10. Front sight, any idea when some springs may be available for this gun? I know Dave at CGW is supposed to be working on some springs for the larger sizes. I'd like to try a lighter main spring and perhaps a lighter firing pin block spring. I may tear into it soon and see how the springs compare to CZ springs.

I just can't leave my guns alone I always have to do something to them.

  • We currently do not have a specific date for alternative spring rates to be released.

Any news on the full size availability, especially the production?

Bud's has them on the site, they are out of stock, but they are there......

  • Full size availability has not been finalized. Still aiming for sometime in Decemeber, but any hard release dates are pure speculation at this point.
  • As soon as a date has been finalized for the release of any model's/variant's, we will make an official announcment.

With only five weeks left in the year, what do you thing are the chances of the full size being available in 2014?

  • Latest update we have as of right now(dates are still subject to change).
  • Standards should be available Jan-Feb 2015

That's really too bad. You just lost the California market for SSE's.... :(

  • 4 weeks later...

Went to my LGS today. They are Sphinx distributor. I was told that they just put in an order for 9 full-size pistols from Sphinx...but (and this surprised me) they said the full-size Sphinx is only being released for now in .45. Maybe FrontSight can clarify this...

.45 is not listed as a caliber for any of their pistols on Sphinx's Website.

^^ I know, that's what's so strange. I was handling the SDP compact at the time, told the salesguy I was most interested in the Sphinx full-size, and thats when he told me that they just placed the order but all that has become available was the full-size in .45. He says they have no idea when the full-size will be available in 9mm. Thats why I was hoping someone from Sphinx/Kriss could comment...

  • The full size Sphinx in .45 ACP that is mentioned is actually our older Sphinx 3000, not the Sphinx SDP Full Size, which will be released early 2015
