I have searched the BAFT and Brady web sites and can not find the answer.
If a non license person (customer) has the FFL he purchased the gun from, ship the gun to the manufacturer( as they have better shipping rates) for warranty repair, as the company will not issue a call tag (shipping pick up).
The gun is fixed and sent back to the FFL.
When the gun was sent by the FFL it was entered in the book. When the gun is returned to the FFL, does this constitute a transfer and therefore a 4473 form must be completed for the customer to have the gun returned to him?
If a individual ships the gun via common carrier (and pays the big money for 2 day air) the firearm will be shipped back to the individual and no forms needed)
In looking through the FAQ on the ATF site, if a gun is given to a gunsmith a 4473 need not be completed, but is that because the individual (not a licensee) gave the Gunsmith the firearm?
