Derya Arms Announces California DOJ Roster Approval for Jacksonville FL-Made DY9

JACKSONVILLE, FL

Derya Arms, a premier firearms manufacturer, proudly announces that the DY9 9mm pistol, crafted in Jacksonville, Florida, has been officially approved for the California Department of Justice (DOJ) Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale. This milestone underscores Derya’s dedication to producing high-quality, American-made firearms. The DY9 is also nearing approval for the Massachusetts Approved Firearms Roster, expanding its availability to another key market.

The DY9 (California Version), a striker-fired 9mm pistol with a 10-round capacity, features Truglo sights, a black nitride finish, and compatibility with multiple optic plates. Designed for personal defense, recreational shooting, and law enforcement, the DY9 combines precision craftsmanship with an affordable MSRP of $399. Manufactured in Jacksonville, it delivers exceptional value and performance.

“We’re excited to bring the American-made DY9 to California shooters at an accessible price,” said Dustin Jones of Derya Arms. “Crafted right here in Jacksonville, the DY9 embodies our dedication to quality, innovation, and meeting the needs of responsible gun owners. With this approval, we’re gearing up production in the USA and look forward to its upcoming addition to the Massachusetts roster.”

Following the California DOJ approval, Derya Arms is ramping up production at its 15,000-square-foot Jacksonville facility. Shipping of the DY9 California Version to distributors will begin from mid to late August 2025, with retail availability in California stores expected by September 2025. The DY9’s roster inclusion enables California residents to purchase this reliable pistol through authorized dealers. Pending Massachusetts approval will further broaden its reach.
