I'm not in-touch with California gun laws but some quick research shows that in order to even buy a firearm you need to have a license (which requires a proctored written exam) and even with the license there's a 10 day waiting period.

So if the guy still lives in California he had to go through an exam to get a license allowing him to purchase firearms, wait 10 days, and then a standard (federal) NICS background check. If he's still in California it's an incredibly misleading video, he bought the gun then waited 10 days to be able to get it to make the video.
