Derya Arms (South Derya Corp.), an international firearms manufacturer with production operations in Jacksonville, Florida and Konya, Türkiye, has expanded its EX imported shotgun line with the EX1500, a lever-action .410 built on a mono-block steel receiver.
It is offered in three configurations: an 18-inch Ironwolf tactical model, a 20-inch walnut-and-nickel field model, and a 24-inch engraved hard-chrome heirloom model. All three are shipping now through Derya’s authorized dealer network nationwide, according to an announcement at The Outdoor Wire.
EX is the designation for Derya’s imported shotguns — built in Türkiye and exported to the United States. Every traditional Derya shotgun in the U.S. catalog carries the EX prefix. The EX1300 over/under and EX1400 side-by-side opened that line. The EX1500 adds the lever gun.
A smooth short-throw lever feeds a 5-round tubular magazine. The receiver is a single-piece steel mono-block — fewer joints, more strength — finished in black Melonite, nickel, or engraved hard chrome depending on the model. Every barrel is a smooth bore internally threaded for Benelli/Beretta Mobilchoke tubes, so the shooter can tighten or open the pattern without changing guns. Fixed front iron and an adjustable rear sight sit ahead of a Picatinny rail for a red dot or optic.
The furniture is the same family already running on Derya’s RAN lever-action rifles. The 18-inch model wears the patented Ironwolf adjustable aluminum stock and M-LOK forend. The 20- and 24-inch models wear hand-selected Turkish walnut with M-LOK slots in the forend. Length of pull is 14 inches across the line. Trigger pull is 4.4 pounds. Recoil is the reason people buy a .410 in the first place — soft enough for new shooters, small game, and pest control, serious enough for a day in the field. View at https://derya.us/ex1500/.
“Most American shooters know Derya for the DY9 pistols, the TM22 rimfire rifles, and the RAN lever guns. The EX line is the other side of the catalog: imported shotguns out of Türkiye. EX1300 over/under, EX1400 side-by-side, now the EX1500 lever .410. Same mono-block steel. Three barrel lengths. Work the lever. Own the field,” Dustin Jones, Vice President, Derya Arms.
