They are not legally machine guns under the law regardless of what they can achieve by means other than sustained full automatic fire.
Judges lie all the time to justify trampling on the second amendment. The cases are not settled, the ban has been thrown out in two separate circuits already. With Bruen being a specific message to lower courts to actually apply the 2A it is unlikely the ban will survive much longer.
