Built in Switzerland and imported by KRISS USA, this SDP Subcompact represents the modern Sphinx design with precision-machined components and distinctive branding. The slide is marked "9 PARA" on the ejection port, with SPHINX/SWITZERLAND markings and the griffin-in-hexagon logo.
The pistol operates in DA/SA with an external spur hammer and ambidextrous decocking levers for safe, controlled decocks. The slide stop is on the left, and the controls are laid out for straightforward manipulation.
Its hybrid frame pairs a hard-anodized aluminum upper with a polymer grip module. The grip features molded texturing and Sphinx griffin medallions for a secure, consistent hold. Dimensions come in at 6.55 in overall length, 4.97 in height, and 1.22 in width, with an approximate weight of 21.15 oz.
The steel tri-top slide carries front and rear diagonal grasping serrations. Sights are fixed, with a green fiber-optic front and a serrated rear notch in a dovetail, giving a clear, high-contrast sight picture.
The 3.13 in barrel and 13+1 capacity (model spec) make this a compact yet capable 9mm carry package. It ships with two SPHINX-marked, Made-in-Italy 13-round magazines and the factory case and manual.
