AW Registration Guide **3/18/2021 update: Registration may re-open soon**

Yep...

Don't include any other guns with that application, otherwise it will delay ALL of them while DOJ sits on their butt not adding the manufacturer to the list.

I'd already have a letter in hand by now for like 8 of my guns if I didn't make that mistake.

Also don't include any home-builds in the same app as other guns, those get delayed for a really long time too. So does virtually anything that isn't an AR.

For those of us with lots of different guns, it's worth separating them into different apps so that one or two "confusing" guns don't delay the whole batch.

I can confirm that.

Out of the 8 BBRAW I have a DOJ letter for, 7 are AR type. The only non-AR is a CZ Bren 805 with a paddle mag release and home made magazine lock.

I registered in two lots and first came the AR's and then oddballs. They both took the same amount of time but the oddballs (I have alot) were bizarre. For instance, they incompleted some of the transactions requesting I change the manufacturer to another option. Some of those requests were downright WRONG. I put "SIG" for a 552 replica I put together from a SIG 556, and they requested I change it to "JP Sauer & Sons". It appears on my letter that way.

That's downright wrong. JP Sauer & Sons did not make this receiver and never did, it was not made in Germany for god's sakes. Wrong continent DOJ. It was made in Connecticut.

So they have no idea what they are doing and I have no idea to explain delays vs. quick regs.

Strangely the DOJ renewed my COE in 24 hours two months before it expires.

So AR pistol question. I had an ffl build a pistol off a American Defense Manufacturers uic lower post 2014. They said that they could do it as a break too and I'm looking at the paperwork they Dros it as a single shot exempt pistol but in 2016. Didn't home build this at all. It's a legit lower from Adm and an actual ffl ran the paperwork through. I should be OK to register?

Thanks very much for the very helpful registration guide. No issues with 3 home builts AR's, and a second with two on purchased AR lowers. No issues with their computer system after 9pm...

They system is probably at the point of breakage. The reports on the traffic are insane, including what happens tomorrow it's probably going to be a cluster.

I just can't believe people waited until the last minute of the last minute, this is a felony issue here guys, was it a good idea to wait this long?

I'd say stay home from work tomorrow and get it registered. Either that or have a non-aw status ready to go pronto. Don't mess with the status of your freedom.

DOJ will not care at all if the whole site is inaccessible in the last hours.

DOJ has also announced that they are pulling the registration site offline at exactly 1159 on Saturday. Which means if you hit glitches or the website crashes before then, you're out of luck. That's why I made an announcement 2 months ago that it was time to stop procrastinating and send in your apps... Now I fear it might be too late for many.

Does my wife have to complete her portion before the deadline too? Send in the same pictures and everything?

Interestingly, DOJ has also announced that their staff is pulling an all-nighter on saturday, they said their support staff is available via email until exactly midnight on Saturday night.

Saturday should be interesting...

I certainly hope none of you are putting this off until then, if you are then you're certifiably insane

Yes, she does.

She does NOT need to wait for you to get your approval, she can submit her joint app immediately after you submit yours. Don't put it off any longer.

Yes she needs to submit all the same photos and such, see posts 1-5 of this thread for complete details
