I tried it last week. It is a lovely gun, the trigger is amazingly smooth, and the grip is very comfortable for my medium sized hand... a true pleasure!
BUT I did NOT get sensibly better scores at 25 meters than those I get with my Tanfoglio Stock II Limited (also an excellent gun with a great finish) and which costs half. Would I put the extra 1500 euros to buy a Sphinx? No! It is not worth it for me performancewise. Still the Sphinx 3000 it is a beautiful weapon if you have money to burn.
@laobunlee You really can't compair. CZ are - in my opinion - made of old cans, Sphinx are made of high grade titanium and steel. Really a work of art and craftman ship. Perfect finish. This does not nessesary make the gun better, but it feel good and I really like it. - And can afford it. CZ price in denmark is less than 1000 euro, Sphinx cost 3300 euro.
I think police should use guns that are as accurate as shooting competition because if police failed to shoot very accurately, they may kill innocent people, which is serious matter.
The weapon is not the primary issue; rather, training of the individual officers is. Just because an officer may qualify with fifty or so rounds once a year does not make him a marksman or a professional in his trade. Unfortunately, most police forces around the world do not realize this. Instead, we have people who go off there touting about the ineffectiveness of standard issue pistols, when those weapons can be used just fine... here's a subcompact shooting at over 200 yds
@Montreal1989 - I can find a standard for 1950€. This is a competition with extra mags and other custom jobs. The cost was approx. 3300 € in denmark. (4400$).

I think I like this Sphinx than the CZ SP01 Shadow better. The design and the finish looks great. But then the price is????? twice from the CZ's.

With modern combat pistols, the limitation is first and foremost the shooter, not the weapon. Particularly so in high stress situations.

@bnctaj Actually both the quality of weapon and the shooter do affect the result.

@FeelFree3 Most combat pistols now a days are so accurate you could never be a better shooter than your pistol can perform.
