Federal definition-
Federal law defines a machine gun as “any weapon which shoots, is designed to shoot, or can be readily restored to shoot, automatically more than one shot, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger. ”
As far as I know since their contraption doesn't meet the definition so it isn't a machine gun. So unless the definition is changed it is legal.
The reason you can't buy them over the counter is simply because you have to wait for the tax stamp. Otherwise it is just like purchasing any other firearm. I have several NFA items at the house and the procedure for SBR's, suppressors, SBS and machine guns is exactly the same.
