This review compares Double Action/Single Action (DA/SA) pistols, exemplified by the Sphinx SDP Compact, against striker-fired designs, particularly for concealed carry. The Sphinx SDP is highlighted for its CZ 75 influence, unique hybrid construction, and custom-level fit and finish at a production price. The discussion emphasizes safety aspects of DA/SA for reholstering and the practical advantages of appendix carry.

The Sphinx SDP Compact 9mm is a high-quality, Swiss-made pistol, considered an evolution of the CZ 75 platform. It features an alloy frame, decocker-only operation, and a smooth double-action trigger comparable to a revolver. The pistol demonstrates excellent accuracy at various ranges and performs well in speed drills, making it suitable for self-defense and competition.

The Sphinx SDP Compact 9mm offers a premium shooting experience with its Swiss-made quality and CZ-inspired design. It features a low bore axis for reduced recoil, a competition-grade DA/SA trigger with a crisp 3lb single-action pull, and durable tri-material construction. While priced at $1,350 MSRP, its exceptional tolerances and performance justify its use by international special forces.
