To have a right to something means the government cannot make it illegal for you to carry out the action or to own something. Since the precedent is currently that the government can make it illegal to own such a firearm, there is no right to it. According to the courts we have a right to own firearms on an individual level, but that right is not unlimited and the government can ban certain types. Those types of firearms the government has the ability to ban are firearms we do not have the right to possess.

Your attempt to pick the nit aside: He has a right to own the weapon, it is covered in the U.S. Constitution and he is doing so legally and within the laws of his state (11th Amendment). Double down on the "He doesn't have the right" slant if you want.
