Meaning if someone wanted to make a law, they could. But they could not prosecute under existing laws. Since they were not a firearm, they were a part. Much as the parts are made and sold to convert a AR-15 to a fully automatic weapon without some crazy contraption, just replace a part. Who will go after those parts ? Probably will not be covered under any legislation we get.
MAKING LAWS IS CONGRESSIONAL WORK ! as per the constitution - read it !

Exactly and President Obama had nothing to do with the decision that was made at the time. In addition there are multiple other legal devices on the market that for all practical purposes turn a semi into a full automatic.
