DRM prevents you from maintaining the gun, please see with an official John Deere armorer.

Not OP, but for me: Anti-consumer, anti-right-to-repair. You have to have it repaired at an authorized service center, which charges tons; and the computer will literally lock out mechanics from non-authorized service centers (including the owner). They're even working on subscription models for hardware you already own.

Even if the charging handle doesn't catch on that grille and stop it from cycling, it's still not going to be able to eject shell casings, at least not without jamming.

I don't know why I'm like this.

You can maybe take it off to use it?

You take your common sense and get outta here!

If it jams, you have to call the John Deere Tech. He will be out there in 2 weeks, and the call our fee is $1000

If the charging handle isn't caught the SKS is top ejecting, so it should function fine. But this looks more like a rack than a mount.
