American Rifleman's Joe Kurtenbach stopped by the Armscor booth during Industry Day at the Range for a look at the Rock Island Armory VR80 shotgun. A semi-automatic, gas-operated, box-fed shotgun like its polymer predecessor, the VR60, the all-aluminum VR80 boasts a host of upgrades, not least of which is its ability to feed from five-, nine-, or even 19-round magazines. For more on the VR80, check out this video.
