All that glisters is not (necessarily) gold, but the Turkish Melik GOLD 9mm Pistol certainly is. Imported from Derya’s cutting-edge facility in Türkiye, this exquisite variant elevates craftsmanship and style, blending timeless sophistication with uncompromising functionality … and it’s a lot more affordable than its opulent appearance might make you think.

The Derya Melik GOLD 9mm is a masterpiece of design and engineering, boasting a polished nickel finish accentuated by luxurious gold details, including a radiant gold-polished 4.9-inch barrel.

Chambered in 9mm with a 17+1 round capacity (15+1 and 10+1 options available), it excels in sport shooting, self-defense, and as a coveted collector’s piece due to its refined, elegant aesthetic. Offering the precision of single action for sport shooting and the readiness of double action for self-defense, your Melik GOLD lets you switch between modes to match your scenario, ensuring you’re always equipped for accuracy or quick engagement.

Featuring fully ambidextrous controls, your Melik GOLD purchase includes a premium hard case, DERYA-branded case with a user manual, WTTA flyer, high-capacity magazine, cleaning rod, and gun brush for complete readiness. Built for durability and precision, this pistol is not merely a firearm but a legacy piece, crafted to be treasured for generations.

“We are honored to unveil the Melik GOLD 9mm, a testament to Derya’s dedication to artistry and innovation,” said Dustin Jones. “This variant is more than a pistol—it’s a symbol of elegance and a heritage of unparalleled craftsmanship.”
