    anyone else have this issue? when i try to upload, it keeps saying ' Street Address' contains one or more invalid characters

    and i have my address entered as such... 1350 N REAL STREET (not actual address)

    i have tried getting rid of the "N" or adding a "." after the N, and still shows the error. any ideas?

    didn't have this issue 2 weeks ago when i uploaded some of my rifles.




    edit... got ti figured out.. had to delete and re do it.. however did have issues loading all 5 rifles into one transaction. got stuck making 3

      I think 1911 is fine. Models of firearms are pretty black and white when it comes to the most generic of firearms. Not much to mistake on a 1911.

      If you think about it probably more than 50% of guns in the DROS do not have the model marked. Justing thinking in terms of older rifles, hunting rifles, any C&R. On my AFS I have TONS of C&R and it's literally comical as to what my transferring FFL's thought the model was.

      With AB 857 it makes a difference because we are required to mark the firearm and sweat we did so through a photo. Not sure how the post July 1st process will work but will a photo be required if they automate (CFARS) the system? I know to AW reg now with a form 1008 serial you are showing them that you marked it in the photo. Model will have to be pretty literal at that point.

        Does the spouse need to create their own account or do you log under the primary account name and just start another application for the joint applicant? so confusing.

        Is it normal that it changes my spouses user name to the primary user name with a 1 added on the end? Also automatically filled in my name under the owner.

          Spouses need their own account. Check out page 1 of this thread for more info.

            Co-registrants need a separate account.

              I just got this error. When iI try to submit it says fill out all fields then it says to fill out "Agency Address" but there is no spot for that. I looked at the LEGR form and there is a spot on that form so my guess is that there's some glitch causing this. I reported it, but now I've lost a day.

                Ok so for the joint application which information goes into the owner info? The primary person's info or the joint? The reason I ask is it changed the owner name to the primary but left all the other info like date of birth, email, dl under my spouses? Just want to make sure this is correct or I should also change the owner name to my spouses for her application.


                Went back and manually changed the name back to her's and submitted. I guess we will see.

                  Out of curiosity, what is the current lag between completing the online registration and when you receive an email response for any reason?

                    I have a sig 516 AR Pistol. Just the way i bought it from a dealer here in CA It has the barrel shroud, threaded barrel with flash hider and the mag outside the grip. I do not have a separate forward hand grip attached to the rail. It does have a bullet button. If i check all the boxes except the forward had grip, will DOJ accept that registration?

                      It sounds like you are trying to share one CFARS account between you and your spouse.

                      When you create a CFARS account, the account is for one individual. Your spouse will have to create a separate CFARS account with a different User Name and Password from you. Once she does that, she puts all of her basic info into "My User Profile" and that info does not change from one firearm to another.

                      As the primary registrant, assuming it is you, enters the firearm info, the registrant info is automatically filled in with your info (DOB, address, email, etc.) when it is under your CFARS account.

                      When she is ready to joint register the firearms, you hit Log Off on the upper right corner, which closes your CFARS account. Then she enters her User Name and Password. Now her CFARS account is open, and she can enter the firearm info, while her personal info (DOB, address, email, etc.) is automatically filled in by the system.

                      So, to summarize, you and your spouse will have to have separate accounts with different assigned User Names and Passwords, each one of you need to fill out the "My User Profile" page, then the system automatically populates the personal info fields as you enter each firearm.

                      Hope this helps.

                        I think I might have an issue and hope someone has a little in site. My wife and I bought an AK back in 2014 and it was done under my name with 2 other rifles. March of 2017 she intrafamily transfered cause she wanted it in her name as it was bought for her, not realizing what the implications might be. So since I have the original DROS, can I register it or can she register it with the original DROS date or do I just need to turn it featureless and not risk the issue.

                          Unfortunately it's a big NO NO to try and register this as an AW. Transfers after Dec 31st 2016 are considered to be out of the dates recognized for the reg period, even if it was originally transferred earlier. If it was a DROS then it's updated in the system.

                          A calguns member just had one confiscated because of an unknown transfer to his name in 2017 because of an accident. If it went through a DROS transfer for any reason after December 31st 2016 it's a no go.

                          Sorry bro- look for featureless or a fixed mag.

                            Thanks for the help. Better to know than have them take it.

                              Judging from recent events such as case in Bakersfield, I would say you can NOT register it as AW

                                I think is you choose "Pistol" as Firearm Type, the Additional Firearm Characteristics choices are:

                                1. Second Handgrip
                                2. Shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles, the barrel that allows the bearer to fire the weapon without burning the bearer's hand, except a slide that encloses the barrel.
                                3. The capacity to accept a detachable Magazine Outside the Pistol Grip
                                4. Threaded Barrel (capable of accepting a flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer)

                                I always end up checking all 4 boxes for all of my Pistol AW registration and I haven't received an Incomplete Notice on these. I'd recommend you do the same.
