About the Rock Island VRBP-100

The Rock Island VRBP-100 is a gas-operated, magazine-fed semi-automatic bullpup shotgun chambered in 12 gauge. Manufactured by Derya Arms of Turkey and imported by Rock Island Armory, it places the action behind the trigger to deliver a 20-inch barrel in a compact 31-inch overall package. It feeds from detachable steel box magazines shared with the VR series, uses a Beretta/Benelli Mobil screw-in choke system, and ships with interchangeable light and heavy gas pistons to cycle both 2.75-inch and 3-inch shells.

The VRBP-100 grew out of Rock Island Armory's VR-series of magazine-fed semi-automatic shotguns, repackaging the proven gas-piston action into a bullpup layout to give buyers a defensive shotgun with a full-length barrel in a maneuverable, short overall length.
