The Rock Island Armory VR80 semi-auto shotgun combines the look and feel of an AR-15 with the power and versatility of a 12 gauge shotgun. The upper, lower, and handguard are constructed from 7075 T6 aluminum for a strong, yet light weight design. The VR80's BufferTHS buttstock is compatible with most commercial buffer tube stocks and pistol grips, allowing for easy customization. The ambidextrous safety and charging handle work great for right or left-handed shooters, and the fluted barrel shroud dissipates heat during long-range sessions.
