The Sphinx 2000 was an extremely well made pistol. In fact, it ranks firmly at #4 on my list of top five highest quality semi autos built since WWII. I've got both a blued and palladium plated S models, as well as a blued Competitor. The frames are all stainless.
These are jewel-like from a quality perspective. The attention to detail is flawless, the fitting is very tight and precise, and the finish is something to behold. Even the roll markings are otherworldly in their precision. These were built in the 1990's for a short time before Sphinx went under. I applaud a company for trying to build the best of the best, but doing it profitably over time is another story. Manufacturing costs were very high. I'm glad Sphinx gave it a run at least.
They are by far the finest iteration of the CZ 75 design, in my opinion.
