The SA-35 retains the classic P-35 profile while employing modern construction: a forged carbon-steel slide and frame paired with a cold-hammer-forged 4.7 in barrel with a 1:10 twist. Both sights are dovetailed, with a white-dot front blade and a fixed serrated Tactical Rack rear for a clear, snag-resistant sight picture.
Key functional updates include single-action-only operation with an extended thumb safety, a re-contoured no-bite ring/rowel-style hammer, and a non-captive recoil spring and guide rod. The magazine disconnect has been deleted, and the pistol uses a standard 15+1 capacity steel magazine.
Controls and handling details are straightforward and purposeful: vertical rear slide serrations, checkered walnut grips, and a uniform matte blued finish on the slide and frame. The forged carbon-steel construction offers a solid feel consistent with this design lineage.
Markings are clear and informative: slide/frame marked 'SPRINGFIELD ARMORY - MODEL SA-35 - GENESEO, IL' and 'SI GENESEO IL USA'; barrel hood marked 'CAL 9mm LUGER'; and the included magazine marked 'PATENT 5,386,657'. The box label serial matches the pistol's serial. Manufacturer part number is HP9201. Made in the United States.
