Derya Arms, a leading innovator in firearms design, is excited to announce its first-ever attendance at Gun Con 2025 in Cleveland, Ohio, with the public show on June 28 at the Twist Drill Building (1242 E 49th St). Hosted by The Gun Collective, this premier firearms and outdoor lifestyle event unites enthusiasts, industry professionals, and media for exhibits, seminars, and community engagement. Derya Arms looks forward to connecting with attendees and media, showcasing its classic within reach DY9 ISLAND 9mm Pistol and Complete Upper, featuring the iconic Island Barrel Design.
Gun Con 2025, organized by The Gun Collective, is a vibrant platform for Derya Arms to engage with the firearms community, from novices to experts, culminating in the public show on June 28 at the historic Twist Drill Building. As first-time exhibitors, Derya is eager to meet individuals, share its vision, and gather insights on its latest offerings. The event’s focus on innovation and accessibility aligns with Derya’s mission to deliver elite performance to all shooters.
“We’re excited to debut the DY9 ISLAND Pistol and Complete Upper at Gun Con 2025,” said Dustin Jones of Derya Arms. “This is a perfect opportunity to bring our classic within reach Island Barrel Design to the passionate firearms community. We can’t wait to meet attendees, hear their stories, and showcase how the DY9 ISLAND enhances precision and control.”
The DY9 ISLAND’s Island Barrel Design, once a high-cost competition feature, reduces muzzle rise by ~25% and recoil by ~12% with four top-mounted gas ports and a heavier muzzle, ensuring flatter shooting and faster follow-up shots. The Complete Upper, compatible with frames for DY9 and frames for Glock 19 Gen 4, delivers the same performance in an interchangeable format. Attendees are invited to visit Derya’s exhibit on June 28 at the Twist Drill Building to experience this accessible, classic design. View the DY9 ISLAND at https://derya.us/dy9-island/.
