@@BaddogBlades yea she's a looker... Thanks!

@@josecardenas4013 I bought both of mine from buds gun shop. I paid $289.00 each. They actually gave me a $10 coupon and I applied it to the second one later. I think they're selling them for about 330 ish now. Still a great deal at that price. Thanks for stopping by watching and commenting it's greatly appreciated you're very welcome.

@@josecardenas4013 I had an actual Beretta 92FS years ago. Yes they look pretty awesome with the red grips.

@@josecardenas4013 👍 Thanks

@@Rob_3054life Good question and the answer in a nutshell is no. I've Only put about $80 into each pistol.And as i've stated , it was completely elective , it was just my preference. Now to get a Beretta 92 FS or M9 I would have spent at a minimum $6-700.00 and for that price, they don't even come with a metal guide rod, metal trigger and metal safety, And that's before tax and transfer. The Melik comes equipped with them at the meager price of about $300.00. So add another $80.00. (if you want) Your at $380.00 Your way ahead of the game. You put these pistols side by side have someone shoot them, You wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Accept for the roll marks.

@@Sandhill1988 I ask because I’m torn between buying a Melik or a used 92 from a shop in Ga that goes for $399.

@@silverblotter4444 that's a good question and I'll try and give you a good answer. When I recorded it didn't look that way. You must have tried to watch it on a television. If you're watching it on the phone just tilt your phone and it'll straighten out.

@@bozo572 You're very welcome it was my pleasure. I know they're really nice.I can't believe for the money the finish and overall quality Is really really nice.

@@brucesherman9811 I could have just gotten a bad lot. They seemed to work ok in the other Melik. Maybe it was just luck of the draw? Either way I took remedial steps to correct any potential issues. Minimal money and time, still half the price of a Beretta. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@biffbastion301 Thank you for your vote of confidence is appreciated. It really is a great way to get into an awesome platform for short money. Even if you need to upgrade some internal parts who cares you can do that for under a hundred In this plenty of new surplus parts for cheep out there to support the platform. I was checking prices for a while on new and used Beretta 92FS and M9's, it's crazy the money they want for them. New plain jane is averaging between $6 to 7$ hundred... used in nice shape is maybe a hundred less. I know the slides and frames are good and the rest is very cheap to , maintain. So i'm in the each pistol for under $400.00 and I have them both right on par with The original. Thanks for watching and commenting.It's greatly appreciated and congratulations on your new acquisition you're really going to enjoy it.

@@FrankH-d6x First let me say thank you for the well wishes, I'm as ready as I'm going to be. Now on to the "heater" ;-)... I have also had some bad experiences from firearms manufacturers. And has given them second chances. So I wouldn't let that deter you from getting a very nice piece at an extremely reasonable price. Your glitch sounds like an administrative one, so the fault of whomever sold you the firearm. Quick example (this actually happened when I purchased this one.) I looked at the paperwork and matched it to the serial number, Just to be on the safe side to make sure of course that it had the correct serial number. Well i'm glad I checked because The serial number wasn't on the paperwork at all. I had to have the owner reprint me the Receipt and make sure that this time the serial number was reflected on it. The plus side is that the guy nice but is kind of a know it all, this allowed me in a suttle way to zing him a bit, Thanked him for keeping me on my toes LOL! :-)). Thanks for watching and commenting.It's appreciated.Thanks for sharing your experience.

@@joshuamartindale868 yes I'm aware of it but they did a very nice job on the conversion. This pistol is so very much like my old smith and wesson snub nose from the early 1980's. I do have my eye on one of their executive series, they are really nice. I'd like to get myself a python with a six inch barrel, but I have a hard time parting with $1,500.00. Thank you for watching and your commentary It's appreciated.

@@williamleiby3150 yea that happens unfortunately. That's why I can't actually show the process, but I can explain it. Keep tinkering and thanks for watching and commenting.

@@bernardconeghen Na not on these, I may build another like that in the near future.. I want these to be up to mil spec. Once you start playing with light hammers, springs ect you have to tune other things around it if not you risk light primer strikes. It's a delicate balance. A wise man when said to me stock is beautiful.

@@gunart Thank you. Yes a match hammer would go in and be an upgrade, if you wanted. But "match" is not what I am going for. I want (for now) to keep these pistols at a mil spec standard for duty / service. Thank you for watching and commenting.

@@stevethepirate8907 I actually did follow up by posting some range footage. Salvage what I could , it was a pretty horrible outing but nevertheless , if you look through my videos , you'll find it. Thanks for watching incrementing it's appreciated.

@@gunart Yes yes my apprentice, lol! In all seriousness I believe the frames and the slides seem to be on par as far as Initial quality. Now. The small components is a little bit of a different story. IMO the Girsan has the edge by a bit. I have noticed some machining marks on some of the small components of the Derya, the Girsan is free of any And the metal quality might be slightly better, slightly (small components). I'm also starting to think this is where Derya was able cut production costs. So If you're looking for Authenticity it's Derya If you're looking for a slightly better quality in the small components it's Girsan. But this really isn't a huge difference because original parts are common inexpensive and readily available. The other thing to take in the consideration is one of the biggest the Derya thus far has been in my experience 100% compatible with original Beretta 92 parts. This is a big factor to consider. Hope this information helps thanks for tuning in and commenting.

Thank you very much for your reply. I think you are really a master. I follow and like it.👍

@@Razor-gx2dq Can you please describe your "reliability issues". And then after your next trip to the range , please fall up With your results after using the new. ammunition. Thanks for posting it's appreciated.

@@randomposter8964 It can, but it all depends on the tolerances are that are critical to acuracy. My concern was more so the way the locking block fit in the barrel. It wasn't bad but it just wasn't to my liking.It was a little loose and you could rattle it and the block would fall out on its own. This actually is not uncommon.It's just not what I prefer. This particular situation wouldn't necessarily affect accuracy Unless it was extreme in this was not. More critical to accuracy would be the locking tabs that actually lock into the slide and ride in the slide rails. Once the breech is closed and the locking tabs of the block are seated fully into the locking block cut outs on the slide, that would be the most critical To stabilize the barrel and breach during the firing process. Abnormalities in wear and/or machining in those areas can affect accuracy as well as small cracks that can be undetectable at times.

I actually have seen small cracks on either blocking block tabs or even the frame pulling the shot one way or the other because there was flex. Of course eventually leads to a catastrophic failure. But if your shots are pulling one way or the other And there's no other explanation a Detailed inspection of the slide and locking blocks are in order. I believe Beretta's PM Full replacement of the locking block is twenty thousand rounds. Recoil springs should be replaced every 3 to 4 thousand rounds This will help prevent unnecessary battering of the breach face and locking block. The ninety two platform is an excellent weapon but like anything else it requires maintenance or will eventually fail.

@@mygcu6729 I got both of mine from buds gun shop. I agree with you you get a great value for your money. Over the last few years 70% of my purchases have all been Turkish. If you went Beretta you'd be out at least $600 and you wouldn't even have a metal guide rod safety selector or trigger. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@ryanisbored8273 yea someone Mentioned it earlier and I looked into it , but it's a thirty round mag as far as I know. If it was a standard capacity I'd be interested. But thanks. For the heads up And thanks for watching and commenting.

@@shadow1958-p8m nice...

@@JPS1Dec I probably just got a bad lot, Some of the rounds I tried to strike three times and they wouldn't ignite. But I'll tell you this, I won't be buying anymore for the few dollars you save. Only new manufacturer from now on for me.

@@williamleiby3150 I too have been entertaining investing in more machinery to do such things. I also agree with you and I'm very much like-minded.I enjoy the engineering and mechanical part of it. I've heard some people on big channels say they don't want to know how to fix it.They just want To drive it they are the driver. I whole heartedly disagree with that view Because if you don't understand your machine almost become one with the machine, how can you become truly proficient with it. You don't even Know how to service it yourself, You're not always gonna have a supply chain to lean on. It's all part of it. As far as my opinion on do I think a mini milling machine can handle small part production, I'll say yes , as long as it's of good quality. I have no idea what machines to recommend but I know that if you're going to make precision parts you're going to need A decent quality machine to do it on. And of course you're going to need good stock to start from. Thank you for washing and coming.It's appreciated.

I'll add one more thing. If you have. A decent drill press you can use that as a make shift Mill to do a lot of small projects such as 80% products. Me personally I've never really seen the logic in it, I can get a brand new lower for forty or fifty dollars. Now if you had looked at some of my older videos I did have to mill out a S&W SW40 slide so it would fit and function on a Glock type gen 3 lower. For this task I use my harbor freight drill press a cross vice and an endmill. But again. If you're gonna want want to make small parts such as firing pins you're going to need a lathe. Thank you again.

@@Sandhill1988 thank you

@@BrandonSolis-rn8oc I'm sure it can be fit. If I recall in one of these threads someone had mentioned they fit one.

@@jl3449 yes. Mine went right on. I think on one of mine I lightly sanded around the magazine release button because it had the slightest bit of friction. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@dankinsler1930 Your welcome. I only noticed it because I disassembled the whole slide and inspected every part. That wear is gonna be tough to see when it's still on the pistol. I'd just keep a spare on hand just in case. It could go a long time before it fails who knows. But if you need to rely on it, Yeah I'd tear it down and inspect it. I just could've got one that was a little on the soft side, I have luck like that lol! These things do happen even in top end firearms, After all it's just a machine and all machines eventually break sooner or later. Thanks for watching and commenting It's appreciated.

@@Sandhill1988 Is the Beretta extractor a straight drop in to the Derya?

@@validnirvana97 I concur that is weirdness, first i've heard of that one. First off when you insert your magazine the only thing that the magazine will actually interact with is the slide lock lever. So i'm gonna rule that out. Unless you have an Odd ball situation. If you have another magazine try that first. Then what I would do is take the slide off of the frame. Turn the slide upside down and try to work the safety lever, see if it moves freely apart from the frame. If it moves freely I would start looking at the trigger bar, It's possible it's out of alignment causing it to jam up. Look to the rear of the slide on the right side just above the grip there is a portion of the trigger bar that pokes up a bit and interacts with the decocker / safety detent that is located under the right ambi safety and protrudes through the bottom of the slide when the lever is pushed down into the safe or decock position. It is part of the function of the safety. That detent could be sticky ( This would cause the problem you describe) or sometimes the tension spring on the trigger bar gets out of whack pushing the bar out of alignment and it can cause issues like that also. It only has to kick out a little and it can be intermitting. Check those few things and then chime back and let us know how it worked out. Thanks for watching and thanks to your question it's appreciated.Hope it helps.

Thank you, very appreciated, I forgot to mention that mag issue is w/ the Mag (17 rd with 16 loaded) mag empty is the same as no mag. Will check back in once I check the issues you mentioned. Once again very,very appreciated

@@ericabrego227 yup, wen't right on. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@ericabrego227 Thank you. Well the Melik is supposed to be a clone of the Beretta 92FS, how exact? So far to me they look to be identical from the best of my recollection. so in theory I don't see why not. I actually have a couple of generation 3 Beretta original equipment locking blocks coming in soon. I will let everyone know what my results are once I try to install them on my Melik's. Just my opinion if I was to get another barrel I would get a locking block specifically for that barrel, I don't think I'd feel comfortable with the tolerances in between swapping blocks back and forth. Might be harmless but I just wouldn't want to do it. You can pick them up for about _30.00. I got mine from Midwest gun works. Thank you for posting and commenting it's appreciated.

@@Razor-gx2dq Popular... I'm Is hoping they release a compact so I can Justify to myself buying another. As far as media I haven't paid attention to any other sites. Now you have me curious, Gonna have to check it out. I already commented earlier that I have a couple of Beretta gen 3 locking blocks on the way to test for compatibility. Stay tuned, Thanks for your comment it's appreciated.

@@R1B2AB Actually I am continuing to compare compatibility. I just ordered (a few days ago) A couple of Beretta gen 3 locking block kits. They consist of the gen 3 locking block (of course) the new gen 3 Compatible plunger and roll pin. From my initial investigations it seems it should drop right in. I can tell you this much The Girsan regard blocks are not Compatible. They are higher in the rear lug Just behind the recoil spring and prevent the slide from cycling. The factory Derya Melik locking blocks are fine, but..... (There's always a butt right ;-).) The tolerances seem a little loose to me, They will almost fall out when you have the barrel removed and tip it side to side. I've had. Absolutely.No cycling of functioning issues with them. But if I can get some OE Beretta ones that have a tighter fit I will just put these back as emergency spares. These two pistols are not going to be hot rodded by any means I'm keeping them and or bringing them up to (or as close to "mil spec / standard as possible. I am looking at it from a service duty prospect. This is relatively an inexpensive upgrade.

BTW the locking block kits are $29.00 each. Shipping cost It's kind of irrelevant because it was absorbed in a larger order that I had placed. You can get a lot of Beretta parts at Midwest gunworks. I called Beretta USA and had a lengthly conversation with them and I was informed by them they have sold all of their older stock to them.

@@danielgreen6547 Thank you for your kind words and you're very welcome. To me it's almost like a public service.Trying to help other people that would be interested in such things, that's the juice for me. Quality doesn't always come with a fancy roll mark and a high price. And if we can make people aware of the quality and potential of these pistols it will promote their popularity and they will be around for quite a while. The downside is the prices will go up ;-)). The good side is maybe we can make the big guys a little more honest. Thank you for watching and commenting it's appreciated.

@@sleigh4019 You let me know where you can find a good used M9 For that knd of money, They don't exist. I looked for weeks before I discovered these pistols. There's no surplus M9's and you don't want one cause they are ridden hard and hung up wet to dry. And if you can find a commercial version used $500.00 is where the Feeding frenzy begins before tax shipping and transfer, and 9 times out of 10 they usually have The plastic parts that everyone dreads And then goes through the expense of changing out which Is going to cost you over another hundred. I now am right at or around $389.00 total cost, yes That included shipping taxes transfer and the upgrades. The pistol is perfect and the quality is there. It's just do you want to buy it for that? Or do you want to buy it for the name? That's entirely your decision. Thanks for watching and commenting.

BTW I'm pretty sure bud's gun shop is still the best price with shipping included around. Even at $340.00 This is a killer deal. I almost felt like I was stealing when I got my 1st within a week of me buying my first I was ordering a second. I knew they were going to catch on and the prices were going to start climbing rapidly. You want to have a good laugh... I was considering buying another one today, But this time the dou tone with wood grips. I almost got a case of the trembles holding back ;-)).

​@@Sandhill1988 I'm about to put the two tone on layaway, I'm nervous cause Im a Beretta "elitist" but definitely excited. It wouldn't be my 1st Turkish Handgun, I got a tp9 sc and a sar9 both amazing quality for the price.

because you have a new 92 that did not cost a lot and still cheaper than a used beretta and depending on were you live you do not find many used berettas

Can I tell you for sure, no. But I can tell you this, you saw that a standard Beretta M9 safety selector switch worked. So based on that I would guess yes. I did have some fitting on one of them (part not pistol), the other was basically a straight R&R (remove and replace). I'm not a big fan of it to be honest, if I'm carrying it it will be safety off in DA just like a revolver. You really have to F up big to discharge one of these unintentionally. Thanks for watching and commenting.

It didn't work when I tried it but it might be because I didn't do any hand fitting.

yes it will those that have issues are putting it in themselves let the gunsmith do it

@@salromano4633 yes it should. I Haven't taken exact measurements because I do not have a Beretta on hand. But it appears the Melik Is for all intense in purposes an exact clone.

@@Sandhill1988 thank you!

@@williamleiby3150 I had a gut feeling that exactly what it was. I'm glad it worked out for you. If you get yourself some 124 grn NATO You're really gonna enjoy the performance. If I can get it that's all I'll run. I usually try to stay away from the lighter rounds, but the majority of American shooters go with the 115, Maybe because it's less expensive, or it's a little faster. But as. Far as range use, I don't see any benefit to it. Spend the extra couple of pennies and get the proper performance out of your weapon. In my opinion 124 grn contributes to better weapon function and At least in my case better accuracy. If you want to run your handloads you could quite possibly install a lighter recoil spring that might help with the reciprocation of the mass of the slide. Worth a shot... no pun intended ;-)). Anyway, thank you so much for your follow-up so everyone can see that it was an ammo related issue.

@@bernardconeghen Very well said. I already have enough pistols with rails. The only one that has anything on it is my bedside.

And yes you are getting essentially a beretta at less than half the price. If you feel the need to upgrade it, you have plenty of room left financially to do it because you didn't overpay for something That's basically the same with a fancy fashon approved roll mark on the slide.

@@trustysteed8982 True... But I did have an issue with the ambi safety arm coming loose because of the way Derya installed it with that big single hole and large roll pin. That's why I went ahead and replaced the safety selector with a Beretta unit. The way Beretta attaches the right ambi arm with the 2 roll pins, it will never come loose. The design will not allow any lateral movement. This opened the door for the other improvements. Could I have just stuck the original parts back in sure, but as long as I was in there I put USGI parts back in. The selector switch cost me $40.00 all the other parts combined per pistol were a mear $30.00. Why not as long as you're in there. It's kind of like when you rebuild an engine that has one bad cylinder.Well as long as you're in there you do everything. And now i've brought all the internals up to a uniform confirmed USGI specification. I'll save the originals as spares. Yes the new surplus parts are of better quality, how much? Well I can tell by the way things are manufactually more so than the average person from my mechanical and manufacturing experience. I'm not saying the stock Springs were bad, it's just that the ones I Installed are better. The other thing is now I know exactly how the pistol is sprung and to what weight.

@@jl3449 Yes I strongly recommend this. Of course , if you want an actual pistol produced by Beretta , go for it. If you like your money and you want the same experience buy this. Let's face it nothing is like a Beretta, But I will say this there is not enough of a difference to make a difference. Except for the extra 300 clams still in your pocket. With that savings, you can buy a case of ammo to train with. This isn't just my opinion.This is based on my experience with the Melik. In like said to another poster, This pistol comes with all steel parts.Whereas the Beretta your paying Beretta pricing, Then you still have to go and spend the extra money to replace the parts that are plastic (if you want). That's going to run you another seventy to a hundred dollars before labor. You can save a little if you can do the install yourself. Thanks for watching and commenting, It's appreciated.

I'll add one last thing. If you buy the pistol at the right price go for it. Because by the time you spend the extra money upgrading if you want to you're still going to be under four hundred. In other words if you pay too much it won't be worth it. I paid $305.00 shipped then another $18.00 for transfer. Pistol was fine decided to do the mill spec upgrades that cost me an additional $70.00 for the parts shipped. You just have to buy the pistol at the right price. If some clown tries to get big money out of you for one It wouldn't be worth it. Just my 2 cents...
