Description
There's no mistaking the Regard MC Deluxe sitting in a display case. EAA teamed up with Girsan of Turkey to take their proven Beretta 92 style pistol and dress it up with a gold plated frame and slide, complete with hand engraving that runs across the metal from the dust cover back toward the rear sight. It grabs attention at the counter, but this isn't a wall hanger built just for looks. Under that finish sits the same forged aluminum frame and steel slide that has made the Regard MC line a favorite budget alternative to the original 92 for years.
The Regard MC Deluxe Runs Like the Original 92
Girsan has been building this platform since the early 90s and earned NATO approval along the way, so the DA/SA action and open top slide design aren't new territory, they're a proven system with a long track record. The double action first pull gives you a safer trigger for home storage, and the ambidextrous decocker lets you lower the hammer without ever touching the trigger. Follow up shots break in crisp single action. Because the internals mirror the 92 so closely, most Beretta 92 magazines, holsters, and grips will work here too, which makes it simple to outfit down the road without hunting for oddball parts.
Sights, Grips, and Controls on the Regard MC Deluxe
The rear sight is drift adjustable for windage and pairs with a fixed front blade, so you can true up point of impact without a trip to the gunsmith. Black G10 grip panels stand in for the usual polymer and hold up to moisture and rough handling noticeably better. A Picatinny rail sits forward of the trigger guard for a light or laser, and the ambidextrous safety and decocker mean left handed hands aren't an afterthought on this build.
What Comes With the EAA Girsan Regard MC Deluxe
This one ships in a leather carry case along with a single 18 round magazine, a cable lock, and the owner's manual, packaged the way a pistol like this deserves. At just over two pounds empty, it carries the heft you'd expect from an all metal 92 clone without feeling like a brick on the hip. Whether it ends up behind glass or in a range bag, the Regard MC Deluxe gives you a full size 9mm with Beretta 92 pedigree and a finish you won't find sitting next to it on the shelf.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the gold finish on the Regard MC Deluxe solid gold or plating?
It's a gold plated finish applied over the frame and slide, not solid gold, so you get the look without the cost of precious metal. The hand engraving is cut into the metal underneath that plating, giving it some real depth rather than a printed pattern. Treat it like any plated firearm finish and keep it away from harsh abrasives to keep it looking sharp for years.
How many rounds does the Regard MC Deluxe hold?
It ships with one 18 round magazine, giving you 18+1 capacity once you chamber a round. Since the pistol shares its magazine well with the Beretta 92 family, factory Beretta and Mec-Gar magazines will typically drop right in if you want a spare or two.
Will a Beretta 92 holster fit this pistol?
Most holsters built for the Beretta 92FS and M9 fit the Regard MC Deluxe without modification, since the frame dimensions are nearly identical. Just double check that the holster is cut to clear the accessory rail if you plan on running a light or laser.
Is the trigger on the Regard MC Deluxe double action or single action?
Both. The first shot is double action with a longer, heavier pull, and the slide cocks the hammer for a shorter, crisper single action pull on every shot after that. The ambidextrous decocker lets you safely lower the hammer after that first pull without ever touching the trigger.
Is the EAA Girsan Regard MC Deluxe meant for actual shooting or just for display?
It's built on the same internals as the standard Regard MC, so it's fully capable of running range ammo and defensive loads like any 92 clone. Plenty of owners keep it in a safe as a collectible piece, but there's nothing stopping you from putting rounds through it if you want to enjoy that DA/SA trigger and manageable recoil firsthand.
