The Melik is Turkish for "king," and Derya leans into that name with a pistol that punches above its weight class in both looks and build quality. The two-tone version pairs a silver anodized aluminum frame machined from 7075 billet with a black Melonite-finished forged steel slide, and the contrast between the two is genuinely sharp in person. Add a set of dark Turkish walnut grips and you have a full-size pistol that looks like it belongs in a collection but is built to take range abuse.
The Melonite finish on the slide is worth calling out specifically. Unlike Cerakote, Melonite is a true metallurgical treatment that penetrates the steel rather than coating over it, so it does not change the dimensions of the parts, cannot flake, and wears as long as the steel underneath it. The frame is machined from a solid block of 7075 aluminum, which is the same alloy used in aircraft and high-end rifle components. These are not corners that budget pistols usually leave uncut.
The action is a classic double/single action setup with a slide-mounted combined safety and decocker. The first shot out of a decocked hammer is a longer, heavier double action pull, and every shot after that is a shorter, crisper single action. The decocker lever can also be left in the down position to engage the safety and disable the trigger entirely. It is a system that has been proven for decades in the Beretta 92 platform, which the Melik draws clear inspiration from. Magazine compatibility between the two is very close, and Beretta 92 pattern magazines are widely available and affordable if you want extras.
At 8.4 inches overall with a 4.9-inch barrel, this is a full-size pistol. It is not going to disappear in a waistband, but that size works in its favor on the range. The longer sight radius gives you a more forgiving sight picture, recoil is soft and manageable, and the walnut grips fill the hand well with texture on the front and back straps for added control. If you grew up shooting or admiring the Beretta 92 platform and want something with that same classic feel at a more accessible price point, the Melik Two-Tone is worth a serious look.
The magazine wells are very similar in design, and Beretta 92 pattern magazines will generally fit the Melik. This is good news for anyone who wants to stock up on spare mags, since Beretta 92 pattern magazines are widely available and tend to be affordable. That said, always verify fit with your specific magazine before relying on it.
When the hammer is down, the first trigger pull is double action, meaning it is longer and heavier as the trigger both cocks and releases the hammer. Every shot after that is single action, with a shorter and lighter pull. The slide-mounted decocker safely lowers a cocked hammer without firing the pistol. If you leave the lever in the down position, it also engages the safety and disables the trigger entirely until you flip it back up.
Melonite is a ferritic nitrocarburizing process that infuses nitrogen and carbon into the surface of the steel rather than depositing a coating on top of it. Because it becomes part of the metal itself, it does not change part dimensions, cannot flake or peel, and provides excellent corrosion and wear resistance. It is widely regarded as one of the better finish options for firearm slides.
It is a capable and well-built pistol, but the DA/SA action with a decocker has a bit more of a learning curve than a simple striker-fired gun, so it may not be the first choice for a complete beginner. For someone who has shot before or is interested in learning the DA/SA manual of arms, it is a great option with a lot of platform history behind it. The full-size frame also makes it easier to shoot accurately, which is genuinely helpful when you are building fundamentals.
The Melik Two-Tone stands out for its material quality at its price point. A 7075 aluminum frame machined from solid billet, forged steel slide with a true Melonite finish, and genuine walnut grips are details you typically see at higher price brackets. The DA/SA Beretta 92-inspired platform also has a long track record of reliability, so you are not trading performance for looks.
The Derya Melik Two-Tone is manufactured in Türkiye at Derya's production facility. The MPN ending in "TR" confirms it as a Turkish-made variant, as opposed to Derya's US-manufactured models which carry a "US" suffix. Derya is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, and distributes its Turkish-made firearms through major US distributors.
