Actually its not that only guild masters can wield guild weapons. They can be stolen and their destruction means a default defeat of the guild and their eviction from their guild base. This was an implied danger regarding wielding said weapons in combat.

As for AOGs case, it just so happened that their guild weapon was specifically designed for Momonga but due to his cautious nature it stayed as a decorative piece hidden away in their Round Table Room. The same room in the first episode of the anime where he had a conversation with Herohero.

In addition, I believe guild weapons bypass the weapon restriction conditions but can only be optimally used by the appropriate job class as they were designed towards.
