Perfectly legal. If the guns are non-functional there's no problem at all. If they are functional, you need to pass a background check and pay a transfer tax of $500 or $1000 for each one.
Getting it *licensed* for the road is another matter.
If whoever bought it knew how to fix the guns, it would be dangerous.
If the guns *can* be fixed without major work (usually replacing the "receiver" or something equally difficult) then they aren't "non-functional" and you have to go thru the background check and pay the transfer tax.
Besides, you don't need the guns working to be dangerous in a tank. Those things can run over cars and right through buildings.

No more so than a bulldozer. Or a large truck.
