typically the government (especially in a court case)don't use "thats what we mean" definitions.

'antique: The US government considers any item over 100 years old to be an antique, whereas most collectors use 50 years as a benchmark.'

regardless of style I believe a broomhandle mauser fits the defenition of antique. INFACT, other definitions are more lax... saying an antique is something old, and can be covetted for its craftsmanship.
