Can early lee Enfield rifles be antique? I was reading another post about the antique handgun for bear, and I looked up how old a rifle has to be. Said something about pre 1898, but the language isn't very clear for a smooth brain non lawyer like myself. Mines 1896

Ohhh I guess bolt action is in on that. Whenever I hear "repeating" I assume lever action
