If it's under the legal limit, he's illegal. It's interesting to note this from US Vs Miller
On May 15, 1939 the Supreme Court, in a unanimous opinion by Justice McReynolds, reversed and remanded the District Court decision. The Supreme Court declared no conflict between the NFA and the Second Amendment had been established, writing:

"In the absence of any evidence tending to show that possession or use of a 'shotgun having a barrel of less than eighteen inches in length' at this time has some reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well regulated militia, we cannot say that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear such an instrument."

Sort of says the guns we're allowed to own are what would be in a Militia. Assault rifles with high cap magazines in other words.

He claims it's barely legal. I know he's a big respecter of the law.
