The Auto & Burglar shotgun was an Ithaca product, not an Iver Johnson. It was a double barrel 20ga pistol made from 1922-1934. Typically had 10" barrels. These guns are considered 'Any Other Weapons' under the National Firearms Act, and although registered and "papered" specimens can be worth $1000 or more, UNregistered guns are contraband and can not be possessed nor sold. sales@countrygunsmith.net

The Enforcer pistol was basically a scaled .30 cal M1 rifle legally sold & registered as a pistol. They were made by both Universal and Iver Johnson.The Iver Johnson had a stock that was grooved out at the right of the bolt for the addition of an M2 auto sear that the Universal did not have and the IJ bolt grouping was more "auto convertible" friendly as well. The IJ was often sold in a full auto version to Law Enforcement agencies.
It was manufactured only in 1985. Blue Book values range from $70 in 60% condition and $115 in 100%.
