Anyone have any experience with the SDS Cheetah (DDI 12)?

Its a Chinese Saiga 12 knock offs, but the few videos I have seen seems to be positive.
Plus it uses all of the Saiga 12 parts.


It seems SDS Imports now have replaced the DDI but almost the same gun.
The SDS has Chrome lined barrel and hammer forged bolt and DDI112 did not.

Pretty cheap for $499 and for an extra $100, you can get the 6 pos. stock, Saber muzzle break and 4 SGM 10 rnd SGM mags.

Set price of $499 from every vendor but only Classic Firearms has the $100 add on.

I just ordered one from them and one from Sportsmans superstore since they deliver next day for only $28.

I hate to say it but its' pretty nice.
All the parts are tight and wobble free. Feels extremely solid.

The included stock comes off easily and you can leave it off or use any Mil spec buffer tube and stock.
I put my DD stock on it until the accessory kit comes.

Just on un-boxing and cleaning, no regrets.


Hope to fire it tomorrow

Received the new mag and muzzle device. Also ordered a 20 rd drum.

Had some issues with the first mag; problems with ejection, but fixed it shortly after.
I was using cheap bird shots.

Switched to 00 bucks and some pumpkin balls with the gas all the way open.
No issues afterwards - went through 24 rounds
Loaded another 24 with the cheap bird shots and had no issue with ejection.

So I would recommend what the youtubbers said.

1. run 10-12 high brass shots or slugs first to loosen up.
2. adjust the front gas to open all the way
3. Smooth the contact points (I did this afterwards cleaning the gun). Used a Dremmel sanding cone and took the rough paint and some spots on the hammer and bolt to a fine polish and now its buttery smooth.

Definitely worth the $499.
