Seeing these at $300 shipped from Bud's now. They look to be outstanding quality. Maybe like the Girsan Regard?

Well over $400 everywhere else. https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/163381/armscor+mk924+melik+mk924+semi+auto Attached File |

Are they 100% parts compatable?

I was able to easily install the 'G' kit in my Regard (not gen 3). Works great.

I have a 92FS, a commercial M9, and a 92 Brigadier. I did a "G" conversion and had bought four G kits cheap but to get the price I had to buy all four kits. I always hated the standard safety/decocker of the 92. |

For some strange reason at 1:15 he says the Melik weighs 5 pounds. That can't be right. I politely challenged the statement about weight in the comments. Looks like my comment has been deleted now. I posted a new comment just now. We'll see whether he responds or deletes it. Attached File |

Just picked one up this week. Fit and finish are excellent. Everything looks toop notch. Havent shot it yet. I have dry fired it a few hundred times with a snap cap in it.
SA trigger pull is 3.5 lbs. Feels a lot like my Beretta A4 in the trigger. |

Anyone know if these have the beretta-style oversized hammer pin and slide cut to stop the slide from being RPG’d into your face in the rare chance of a catastrophic failure?
I’m also curious if 92 barrels work for this as well |

I’m also curious if 92 barrels work for this as well View Quote Yes, it has the oversized hammer pin and slide cut to stop the slide from coming off. I just swapped entire slide assemblies between my Melik and an Italian Beretta 92FS. The Beretta slide fits the Melik. But the Melik slide doesn't fit the Beretta I didn't shoot it with the Beretta slide on it. Attached File Attached File |

If you explain what all that means, I will look. I have a Girsan as well. I tried to google what you were asking and haven't came up with anything to help me figure out your question. |

The jargon that some folks use around here sounds a bit odd to me too. |

I think he means like 92FS (what he is calling "S") vs 92F where the 92FS has a bigger head on the hammer pin, to prevent frame/slide separation dangers and the term "Slide to the eye" meaning the slide comes off and hits the shooter in the eye?

Looks like I got a lemon. I picked one up over the weekend. Trigger felt great out of the box in both da/sa. After two mags the hammer started falling to half cock with a slow double action pull. 1 in 3 trigger pulls resulted in a failure to fire. Zero malfunctions in single action.I believe it's a hammer sear/trigger bar/decocker lever timing issue. Anybody ever use rockisland's warranty?

After seeing the above pictures, I am not impressed with the look of the build quality, casting, and machining on that thing.
Definitely the "beretta we have at home". I have a turk made tisas 1911 and it's build quality and machining is as good as other 1911's I have seen. So I know the turks can make good guns. |

Got one out of the box yesterday. Looks good. If you have a Lipsey's dealer you can get it at a decent price.

Decent double action pull, crisp single action. Would prefer the Turk 92 to a SIG M17.
