More work with the Cheetah - 02/15/18 09:58 PM
I've been really impressed with the basic SDS Cheetah so far. Its accuracy with slugs I've used is very good, especially since I'm using the stock, ghost ring sights that come with it. I found that I was having difficulty with rapid target acquisition, so I started exploring alternatives or after-market accessories I could buy to give myself a rail to mount some glass on. Couldn't find anything I liked, so decided to do a DIY project. (Drilling and tapping ain't exactly my cup of tea, but I couldn't figure out anyway to avoid it, so added a rail to the top cover) It came out fairly nice, I think. I can use a quick release red dot or the basic iron sights, depending upon the situation. Red dot for making the piggies' lives miserable; basic irons for home defense. To make sure the rail would stand up under the beating of 3 inch, high brass 12 gauge shells, I added JB Weld underneath the rail as well. Here's how my project turned out:
I'll update after I get some more range work in with this "evolving" rig.
