There’s a 99.999% chance it’s not a machine gun

Assault rifle ≠ machine gun. That was an AK, a kind of assault rifle. It most likely isn’t even automatic, as the full auto parts are banned to the point that manufacture and shipping those parts in the US is almost impossible.

Yeah, those "impossible to get parts" are readily available. Actually easier to get than a firearm itself since the parts aren't regulated. But if you put them in your rifle without the proper paperwork you're going bye bye for a long time.
