The Rock Island Armory VR80 is a magazine fed 12 gauge semiautomatic shotgun with ergonomics and controls similar to the AR-15. The standard thumbhole stock can be replaced with standard AR-15 furniture and hides a commercial buffer tube. The VR80 comes with two 5 round magazines and three Benelli choke tubes (Mod, IC, Full). The safety and magazine release are ambidextrous, and the charging handle can be reversed without tools.
If Rock Island Armory has indeed put out a quality product, I suspect the VR80 will become very popular among the 3-Gun circuit. MSRP on the VR80 is $699 and it is available now.
