Sphinx AT 2000 police special?

[stromburg]

I put a Spinx AT 2000 PS on a 5 day hold at my LGS today without knowing anything about them, all I know is it felt as good as my P01 with an amazing trigger!

So far everything I've read is extremely positive.

I'd really appreciate any input you all have on this little 2 tone gem, good and bad.

Anyone have or had one?

It's a Sphinx, probably one of the best made CZ clones out there, often rivaling custom 1911s with build quality and attention to detail.

If you are seeing this at a good price, i would jump on it in a heartbeat.

Honestly I wouldn't have even looked at it if it wasn't for this forum and CGW's reviews of the new Kris's/Sphinx models, then add the fact this one is at Cabelas, who usually is really overpriced on everything in there gun library but for $500 it seemed like a no brainer to at least put it on hold while I did some research......

I did post a thread on my local forum and the only responses were "I'll buy it if you don't" and a offer to buy it from me for $650.

I think this will be coming home with me soon  .......and I'm keeping it

Now I need to order a pro package from David for my P01 so I can see how these 2 compare at the range.

I put it on layaway yesterday, I would have brought it home but I just bought a Colt 1911 01092 XSE.

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Won't let us view it, might want to host the picture on Photobucket or another picture hosting website.

FWIW though, without even seeing it I'd buy it for $500 too, that's a steal...

So far I've had zero luck finding anyone selling replacement part for this thing, so I sent an e mail to David at CGW to see if he's familiar with them at all. What I'm hoping is he'd be willing to check it out if I sent it to him to see if any CZ or a Canik parts might work or be close enough with some fitting to work.
I may not ever need anything but it'd sure be nice to know and or have them on hand just in case.

Regardless I should be picking it up in a week or so.

I have used CZ springs in these they are very close to a CZ.

Well.......I finally picked up this Sphinx 😎
Brought it home, field stripped it and everything looks really nice, hopefully I can get to the range this weekend.

Is Sphinx a 100% clone of CZ? Parts interchangeable?

[stromburg]

I don't think so but........
The SP01 18rd mags work perfectly 👍

[CDKJudoka]

The Sphinx is actually closer to the Tangfolios than the CZs. They are just refined more than either.

Lot easier to refine others work than to start from scratch with your own.
