mikebaker1129;
 Concerning your inquiry about CZ75 mags working in the Sphinx 3000  permit me to share the ?field tested? findings of national USPSA shooter Cindi Thomas.
?The Sphinx will run the CZ mags and the MEC-GAR but not vice-versa. The CZ and MEC-GAR mags worked in the 3000, as a 17 plus 1 mag.  However in my Sphinx SDP compact, a 15 plus 1 mag, the Sphinx would NOT take the CZ mag, so as a workaround until I received 15 plus 1 Sphinx mags I used my 3000 Sphinx mags. - Cindi?

Here?s a video of Cindi shooting her Sphinx 3000 Competition a few years ago.

After Cindi sent me the above info I acquired a couple of CZ75 mags.

Some more detailed pictures of my Sphinx 3000 are forthcoming when I get some free time.

As I've had a number of inquiries as to selling the Sphinx I thought I should update this thread and let folks know that a fellow forum member and Sphinx collector contacted me in May and the pistol is now at its new home in Florida.

No doubt the best made firearm I have ever owned in almost sixty years of gun ownership.

Thanks
