43x clone with a $299 MSRP.  Is the DY9Z the New Budget Glock 43X? Derya Breaks It Down! |

| my buddy has one and I have a 43X. The Derya mag worked in my 43X. The Derya slide is much fatter than my 43X slide. The Derya grip is longer due to the replaceable backstrap. It is also more comfortable to shoot than my 43X because it is bigger and the slide mass absorbs more recoil. It is a great gun for $220.xx |

On the website they had two different magazines. One of them was $25 and the other was $30 and was stated to have been made in Italy. I spoke with one of their customer service people on their Reddit page they weren't sure exactly what the difference was. So it's possible with $25 magazine was made in Florida. If the magazines end up being reliable in the G48/G43X/SCTsc/Micro Dagger, they better be ready to ship a bunch of them

ETA: It is marked "ACT-MAG", so I guess not. |

Plus I don't actually have a gun that would take them, I'm just curious to spread information for other people who are interested

| I bought one the other day. Haven’t shot it yet but it appears to be well made, clean machining. The slide will interchange with a Glock 26, though the DY9Z slide seems to not go fully forward on its own on the Glock frame, hangs up just short. May just need break in though. The magazine on mine is unmarked and doesn’t appear to be of a clean of workmanship as what I would expect from ACT-Mag. A PSA mag seems to fit just fine. The optics cut seems nice and deep and is RMSc with 4 lugs so a Holosun will need a plate or some shaved lugs. Overall I’m happy, pending actual range performance. If it works well I’ll do some grip stippling. The small backstrap feels great but the texture could be better on the grip. |

| Got to shoot mine yesterday, about 50 rounds. Seemed softer shooting than my 43X, not surprising with the heavier slide. Trigger was about as expected, decent for a Glock style. Functioned fine with both the factory mag and a PSA mag. One stoppage but upon further inspection it was a bad/deformed case (I was using a baggie of random old ammo). I’m happy and will have to figure out a holster for it and stipple the grip. |

| I am still doing some testing of the one I bought for $250. I was impressed with its big brother and own a G48 and Micro Dagger. As stated the slide is G19 frame rails, K cut slide, 3 backstraps. A single crude mag is included. I just picked up a Glock metal mag for testing. |
