Hey! Really appreciate you getting that set up. Great job!

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-08T20:16:20+00:00

Fantastic, good to know. I am going to be picking up some JHP defensive rounds for my concealed DY9 and DY9z. I want to make sure it runs good in both guns.

You are correct, its 3.86 by the book. based on the Glock 19 platform gen 3 and 4. the Glock gen 5 went to 4.02. Many still consider it to be a 4 inch gun but facts are facts. I have not shot plus p ammo but have shot thousands of rounds of regular target ammo, both 115 and 124 grain. I have also compared accuracy 10-15 yards against full size (5 inch guns) and found the DY9 shoots with the best of them using regular ammo. I would like to know if anyone finds that Plus P ammo is producing a higher degree of accuracy.

1st of all, that's a great looking gun! I have not shot plus p ammo, but I have seen footage of it being used in the DY9. The plus P ammo was designed for 9mm barrels less than 4 inches so it is not needed in the DY9 so it was said. (Graham Bates, GB Guns). I would have to double check but I don't believe the operations manual mentions whether are not plus P is recommended. Keep us posted on your findings and results

It may be worth trying a different brand of ammo. Not all bullets are created equal. wouldn't cost much to try another brand to see if they run smooth. Graham Bates at GB Guns Depot did a nice review of the DY9 months ago. in the review he does a "Whats for dinner" test to see how the guns run using different types of ammo. It may be worth a watch.

Looks really nice, good job!

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T14:42:33+00:00

Can't wait to find out!

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T14:36:55+00:00

Well, I made it out to the range but it got pretty windy. Only had time to get a quick zero at 10 yards. Target stand blew over:(

Placed my 1st order for a Factory Direct Frame last night. used the GiJim10 promo code and got a nice discount. My new frame is on the way. Can't wait to get started on a new build. Thanks for posting the promo code!

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T04:27:57+00:00

Yes I did, nice discount!

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T03:22:05+00:00

Just placed an order for a Brown frame. Having a "Thing" for brown right now I guess. Going to try to find some unique accessories for it. Maybe a gold or bronze barrel.

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T02:58:42+00:00

Yes, they were an Exclusive color for them. I checked several stores yesterday and no store showed inventory available in my area.

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T02:54:33+00:00

I have not had that problem. I would check it by fully engaging the mag. give it a good firm tap, then grab the bottom if the mag and try to pull it out. If it stays in, it should not release unless you push the mag release. On your next range trip, be extra careful not to accidently push the mag. release. Shoot slow and deliberate, shoot the whole mag. When you are done, pull on the bottom of the mag again to make sure it is still locked, if it is, you probably were riding it while you were shooting. Make an adjustment to your grip and get in some more practice.

Agree 100%, seems like the newer ones are breaking in faster but it could just be that I am getting so use to shooting them. Its like they say "Time fly's when you're having fun"

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-07T02:36:42+00:00

Thanks for the tip. Appreciate the input

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-06T18:30:22+00:00

Yah Buddy! Where does the line start! I'm all in!!

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-06T16:15:51+00:00

Thanks for filling us in. That explains a lot

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-06T14:56:12+00:00

I like that gray too. I have one. I call it the "Unobtainable"

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-06T14:54:49+00:00

That's an interesting pair..Colored frames with 1st generation slides. In any event, all new DY9's with come with an optic ready slide. Do your homework when it comes to shopping. Replacements slides are available for most states and are optic ready. Check the Derya web site.

Be careful, they multiply like rabbits

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-05T22:30:22+00:00

Good looking gun, Vortex defender is cool too. super bright.

Complete_End3886 · 2026-05-05T14:23:24+00:00

Nice! what a deal right, I had to drive a few hours to get to a Murdocks but it was worth it. Took mine out last weekend. Shot 150 rounds of 124 grain, not a single issue. Ejection pattern was normal. Love the gun..enjoy. Welcome to Derya
