it's legal to build a semiauto as long as it meets certain restrictions.

Just a couple are that it can't be:

1) a Short barrel rifle.
2) fired from an open bolt
3) made with so many foriegn parts that it isn't 922r compliant
4) capable of the reciever having original FA parts installed into it

To do all that, you have to make a reciever with a smaller I.D. or permanently welded obstruction that would prevent an original bolt from being installed.

Then you'd have to modify or make a new bolt that fired from a closed bolt

then you'd have to make a pistol grip to make it a functional pistol or make the barrel 16" long to make it a rifle.
