In that trailer, in one scene he uses an AR with a foam covered pistol buffer tube. But it seems to be full-auto. So illegal machine gun, but he observes the law re: SBR, and he also doesn't shoulder it. 
You know AR pistols have become very popular when they start showing up in movies.

Could it be a properly registered full auto receiver? No barrel or stock limits on what you hang off of it, as I recall anyway.
Saw this trailer in the theater tonight, wife leaned over and whispered “I see Hollywood is really getting serious about their stand on gun violence.” Of course I kissed her.

Not likely, at least given how I understand the plot. Seems he buys his first firearm after his wife is murdered. Even if he submits paperwork for a full-auto receiver at the same time that he buys his first firearm (which would be HIGHLY unusual), he'd still have to wait ~9-12 months before using it as part of his vigilante tour. Also, if you've got the funds and patience for a full-auto lower that you intend to slap a short upper on, why wouldn't you SBR it?
Maybe I'm wrong; maybe they'll show him surfing a gun forum, asking questions about the Form 4 process, about dotting the i's and crossing the t's on the application, and subscribing to a thread where people post their wait times.

If it's a registered MG, it can be configured however you want. The MG stamp negates the need for an SBR stamp.
Now, if you're asking "why wouldn't you put a stock on it"...that's a different question. But there's no need to file an additional F4 to SBR a machinegun.

I watched it again and it says November at the end.
OP
It is supposedly happening in Chicago, one of the most restrictive firearm cities in the world. In other words, with a fist full of cash and a dark alley you could probably pick up a howitzer if you wanted one.

Well IL passed shall-issue concealed carry a few years ago, over the objections of Chiraq. So he could be legally concealed carrying a handgun.
Not sure where they stand on AR's, though I do believe Cook "Crook" County has an AWB. I know they have a mag capacity limit, so 30rd mags will be illegal.
