matts2k Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 @frontsightgoeswhere Any chance we could get more regular updates, better time estimates, and/or more transparency from Kriss about full-size Sphinx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhart123 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I heard on another forum that Sphinx is going out of business and that production of the pistols is moving to the U.S. - no more Swiss beauties after what's in stock are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrontSightGoesWhere Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 @frontsightgoeswhere Any chance we could get more regular updates, better time estimates, and/or more transparency from Kriss about full-size Sphinx? I can only release updates that have been cleared by my company. I am hesitant to post tentative release dates, I would rather have a solid release date posted up so that customer expectations are met. I have shot the full size standard and it is one pretty smooth shooting pistol. Having said that, as soon as I receive a more solid release date (ie: we are actually ready to ship the pistol's out), I will not post any release dates until that actually occurs. -I will be submitting the Sphinx SDP Standard and it's variants for USPSA Production Class approval as soon as we have more samples available. -Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtturn Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 So has the "production" line been scrapped and incorporated into the "standard" line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twowheels Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Joe, I have been trying to have a holster made for my subcompact. Its a very nice carry piece that I can't find anything to carry in. Milt Sparks says they have been promised and are waiting on a pistol to use to make a form. Do you have an update as to status? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtturn Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 So has the "production" line been scrapped and incorporated into the "standard" line? Can I get an answer? I've asked on Facebook and Instagram multiple times. Sphinx is terrible at responding to potential customers. Starting to think I might as well write this company off for good.

No both are available in Switzerland. It is that they cannot supply demand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EGM Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Well, seems that this thread is dead? Bumping it in case it revives hopefully. Calling on Joe, or anyone from Sphinx/Kriss to give us any update on production plans and schedule. ...fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix1977 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Sphinx is no more.... Kriss and Sphinx went each separate way. Sphinx is now named Phoenix Swiss and is making incredible nice guns again in Switzerland. https://www.phx.swiss/ the guns are imported in the U.S. by the Attic import. https://theatticimports.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGoodwin Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 After waiting 14 months for a Phoenix Fusion Standard deckocker, the staff at The Attic let me know it was in, but raised the quoted price from $1049 to $1549. Suffice to say I do not own a Phoenix and am remaining happy with my Sphinx pistols for the time being. While I am sure that extra .6 inches of barrel length and sight radius are important, they are not THAT important! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
