The Derya Melik Gold 9mm is a full-size double/single-action pistol with a polished nickel finish and a gold-polished barrel (brand part no. 15L.MELIK9.NG.TR). Derya gives it a 4.9-inch barrel, fixed sights and a slide-mounted safety/decocker with ambidextrous controls. Dark wood grips complete the look. It handles like a traditional DA/SA design, with a heavier first double-action pull and lighter single-action shots after that.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is 9mm, a common cartridge with wide ammunition availability.
• The barrel measures 4.9 inches, a full-size length that gives a longer sight radius than a compact pistol.
• The action is double/single action, with a deliberate first pull followed by lighter single-action shots.
• The finish is polished nickel with a gold-polished barrel, which gives this model its Gold name.
• Sights are fixed front and rear, a durable setup with nothing to adjust or knock out of zero.
• The controls include a slide-mounted safety/decocker and fully ambidextrous operation for left- and right-handed shooters.
• The grips are dark mahogany wood, which add traction and a traditional look.
• Overall size is 8.4 inches long, 5.46 inches tall and 1.4 inches wide, a full-size footprint.
• The pistol weighs about 2 pounds, which helps soak up recoil in a 9mm.
• The package includes a hard case, manual, magazine, cleaning rod and gun brush, so the pistol is ready for the range.
