Derya Arms proudly announces the launch of the DY9 ISLAND 9mm Pistol and its standalone Complete Upper, a revolutionary duo that brings a classic, competition-grade Island Barrel Design to shooters everywhere. Once an expensive add-on reserved for high-end firearms, this iconic feature is now accessible in an affordable pistol and an interchangeable upper compatible with frames for DY9 and frames for Glock 19 Gen 4. Available in 10-round and 15-round configurations, the DY9 ISLAND delivers precision, control, and versatility for all.
The DY9 ISLAND reimagines a time-tested design with its Island Barrel, which shifts mass to the barrel and incorporates four top-mounted gas ports to reduce muzzle rise by an estimated 25% and recoil by approximately 12%. This results in flatter shooting, faster follow-up shots, and exceptional accuracy. A fixed front sight ensures steady focus, while the lighter slide, featuring an RMR cut, enhances target reacquisition and optic integration. Designed for home defense, range practice, and competitive shooting, the DY9 ISLAND offers elite performance at an accessible price.
The DY9 ISLAND Complete Upper, available separately, brings the same classic innovation to shooters upgrading their existing frames. Compatible with frames for DY9 and frames for Glock 19 Gen 4, it delivers the same recoil management, precision, and optic-ready versatility, making it easy to transform any compatible pistol into a precision powerhouse.
The DY9 ISLAND Pistol and Complete Upper are now available, inviting shooters to experience a classic redefined.

“Derya Arms is committed to making competition-grade performance accessible,” says Abdullah Celer, President of Derya Arms. “The DY9 ISLAND takes a classic Island Barrel Design and makes it available to every shooter, with a pistol and interchangeable upper that deliver sharpshooter accuracy.”
“The Island Barrel was a challenge we embraced with passion,” adds Harry Burleigh, VP of Manufacturing. “By streamlining production, we’ve integrated a feature once exclusive to high-end firearms, achieving an estimated 25% muzzle rise reduction and 12% recoil reduction, ensuring every shooter can experience the difference.”
