Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 2002 by Israel Military Industries (IMI) and known in Israel as the "Barak" (Lightning), the SP-21 represents one of the most uniquely engineered military-style handguns ever produced. Designed as an advanced polymer-framed successor to the Jericho 941, the SP-21 combines a distinctive humpback slide profile with an unusual and highly intuitive action setup: a traditional frame thumb safety combined with a separate slide-top push button that safely decocks the internal hammer into double-action mode. Featuring a match-grade 3.9-inch barrel with 6-groove polygonal rifling and an ergonomic finger-grooved grip, the SP-21 saw extremely limited commercial importation into the United States via Magnum Research before production ceased—making pristine complete examples exceptionally prized by military arms purists and Israeli firearm collectors.
This specific example is an authentic Israeli-manufactured IMI SP-21 bearing serial number 33-000874, collected at the factory on June 23, 2003. Chambered in popular 9x19mm Parabellum, it features a 3.9-inch polygonal-rifled barrel, factory matte black finishes, 3-dot combat sights, slide-top decocking button, and original polymer frame with IMI logo medallions. Preserved in fantastic, well-cared-for condition with clean slide and polymer surfaces, a mirror-bright polygonal bore, and crisp DA/SA decocking mechanics, this SP-21 comes complete in its original factory logo-embossed hard case with matching serial dated test shell envelope, original factory instruction manual, and one (1) steel 9mm magazine. An exceptionally rare, investment-grade Israeli hand-cannon package ready for range recreation or placement in any advanced military sidearm collection.
