There were approximately 8 million combat deaths in World War I. After artillery, machine guns were the second leading cause of combat casualties. Some estimates put the total number of deaths related to machine gun fire in World War I at more than 2 million. Most folks remember the rapid-fire, death-dealing British Vickers, German MG08, French Hotchkiss, Russian Maxim and American Browning guns. Often forgotten among the fraternity of Great War “grim reapers” is the Austrian Schwarzlose. German-born Andreas Wilhelm Schwarzlose was a bit latecomer to the early machine gun design community.

As practical, concealable handguns get smaller and smaller, we’ve had to start adding modifiers, like “sub” and “micro,” to describe “compact” pistols. The new Derya Arms DY9Z not only fits into the “micro” class, it adds another adjective: affordable.   The Derya DY9Z is a micro-compact version of the company’s compact DY9.   The term “micro-compact” loosely denotes a small handgun chambered in 9 mm Luger that still holds 10+ rounds in the magazine.
