B&T USA has unveiled the Phoenix Drake and Redback pistols, enhancing the precision legacy of the Swiss Sphinx program. These all-steel sidearms feature cold-hammer-forged barrels and meticulous hand-crafting. The modular Drake offers advanced customization options, while the lighter Redback combines race-gun ergonomics with Swiss accuracy, tailored for American competition shooters.
B&T USA states “B&T USA’s latest imports—Phoenix’s Drake and Redback pistols—extend the precision lineage forged by the legendary Swiss Sphinx program. Hand-built in Interlaken to boutique tolerances, both all-steel sidearms arrive with cold-hammer-forged polygonal barrels, zero-play slide-to-frame interfaces, and endurance pedigrees measured in hundreds of thousands of rounds. This is watchmaking discipline translated into match-winning hardware—now shipping to American ranges for the first time.
Tailored for shooters who demand modularity, the Drake adds a Briley-style spherical bushing, quick-change optic plates, and a recoil-taming full-length dust-cover rail—delivering glass-smooth cycling and lightning-fast follow-up shots. The Redback carries the same tri-angled trigger geometry and Swiss hand-fit craftsmanship in a slightly lighter, 4.5-inch format, offering palm-swell G10 grips and rapid sight-system swaps without losing zero. Whether the mission calls for the Drake’s extended barrel and integrally guided lock-up or the Redback’s compact balance and race-gun ergonomics, both pistols deliver Swiss precision—engineered for American podium finishes.
A Swiss-built, competition-ready pistol forged from Sphinx heritage, the Phoenix Drake pairs a hand-fit, zero-play slide-to-frame interface with a cold-hammer-forged polygonal barrel guided by a Briley-style spherical bushing for exceptional accuracy. Its tri-angled trigger geometry delivers smooth double-action leverage with a crisp single-action break, while a quick-change optic-plate system and modular grip, safety, and control options adapt the Drake to any practical shooting discipline—all backed by endurance testing beyond 120,000 rounds.”
