Hahn help

Hi guys great sight. I am no expert on the m-14 trying to learn.
My most important question for the experts here will be is the gun legal for a regular Joe to own?
This gun was taken to a gun guru because the rod would disconnect from the bolt sometimes after many shots often blamed on cheap ammo.
The guru was not happy and said the gun was not legal to own.
So with a flashlight and Google and researching this site, the gun was discovered to have very lightly etched marks with "Hahn machine st Charles".
The selector switch will move but has never been switched to try at range.
Also the gun appears to have a modified number looks like heat was involved changing outside numbers it is now only stamped with two digits.
So what do the experts say legal or not
Thanks

Is the dismount notch for the op rod still in the middle like a M14? why does it look like there is a chunk of the rail for the op rod track missing on the bottom under where the semi auto notch should be?
I would pass on this rifle if it was me, if you already have it I would buy a semi auto receiver and use the parts to build a known legal rifle.
