mamelukesabre is right. You can manufacture your own firearm as long as you never transfer it to another person.
Actually, you CAN sell your privately made gun, as long as you didn’t make it expressly to sell.
There’s a lot of gray area, but many recommend that you only manufacture one at a time and keep them for at least a year.
That will supposedly establish that you are not manufacturing to sell.
You just cannot make guns with the intent to sell. That requires a license.
Which is what it appears this person is doing.
