Description:

This is an excellent Spanish copy of the original Ithaca double barreled "Auto & Burglar" shotgun. This weapon is not a sawed-off shotgun, but a true, factory produced short barreled shotgun marketed to homeowners and travelers in need of compact firepower. These have also been found to be in use by bank guards and armored car operators. This weapon has 10 1/2 barrels with smooth steel rib marked on top "ARMAS ERBI S.C.I. ELGOIBAR, MADE IN SPAIN". With the right barrel marked "MADE FOR HOLLAND FIREARMS, INC. HOUSTON TEXAS" with the left side marked "20 gauge 3" Chambers". The underside of each barrel has the standard "EBIR" Spanish factory proof and firing marks. It is fitted with a standard short forearm and pistol grip stock, both checkered on the sides. This weapon is currently registered with the ATF as an "Any Other Weapon" that carries the $5.00 dollar transfer fee.

Rating Definition:

Fine with 90% of the slightly faded original blue and case colored finish overall. The forend and pistol grip/stock are also both in near excellent condition with nice matching color showing only minor handling marks from light use. This weapon has all matching numbers on the various parts. The top rear areas of the barrels have a small amount of very fine rust just starting to form that could be easily removed to improve the look. NOTE: This item is currently registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives, as a National Firearms Act (NFA) weapon listed as a "Any Other Weapon" (short barreled shotgun). These weapons are still subject to the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 478. Before bidding on this item, it is the sole responsibility and obligation of the bidder/Class 3 FFL holder to comply and understand with all the State and Federal transfer laws and restrictions that apply in their current place of residence.
