SPS was founded in 1996 by two Top-level IPSC shooters; one of them, Ceferino
Masip, also a prestigious gunsmith, who collaborated with Astra from Pais Vasco with the New pistol’s design based on 1911 system, providing the new double-stack grip with integrated mag-well and modular frame, to turn into 2011 model. The first units of these SPS pistols were manufactured in Astra and one year later the SPS factory was
inaugurated in Ripollet (Barcelona), inspired by these models of proven success and becoming a world reference in the field of Sporting shooting with its exclusive models for IPSC and Target, used by expert shooters including European and World
champions.
