It's gunsmithing if you are working on customers firearms.

May a licensed gunsmith receive an NFA firearm for purposes of repair?

May a licensed gunsmith receive an NFA firearm for purposes of repair?
Yes, a licensed gunsmith may receive a National Firearms Act (NFA) firearm for the sole purpose of repair and subsequent return to its owner.

It is suggested that the owner obtain permission from ATF for the transfer by submitting an ATF Form 5, Application for Tax Exempt Transfer and Registration of Firearm, to the NFA Branch and receive approval prior to the delivery. The gunsmith should do the same prior to returning the firearm.
