It is my understanding that according to current PA law - if I leave a gun on consignment at a gun shop and the gun doesn't sell - if I want to take it back, I must undergo and pass the NICS/PICS background check to get it back.

What about a gun I leave for gunsmithing/repairs?

If a Pennsylvania FFL holder has to put a consignor's gun in his "Book" when he takes possession of it, why does he not have to do the same thing for a gun left for repair?

Inquiring minds and all that.
