Description
If you're running a VR-series shotgun and need a backup magazine or replacement for your current setup, this factory magazine from Armscor gets the job done right. Built to the exact specifications that Rock Island uses for their firearms, it slides right in and works like it came from the factory. Which makes sense, since it did.
Steel Construction Meets Practical Design
This magazine features a steel body paired with a polymer anti-tilt follower and removable floor plate. The chrome silicon spring is robust enough to push shells reliably whether you're at the range or depending on your gun for something more serious. The 5-round capacity is practical for most situations without creating a magazine that's unwieldy to load or handle.
Cross-Platform Compatibility
The real value here is commonality. This magazine works across the entire VR lineup, fitting VR-60, VR-80, and VRBP-100 models without modification. Whether you're a VR-80 guy who wants to try a VR-60, or you just need spares for the shotgun you already own, you don't have to buy different magazines for different guns. VR shooters appreciate that kind of forward thinking from the manufacturer.
Built for Standard Loads
One important note: this magazine is designed for 2.75-inch shells only. If you're running 3-inch magnums, you'll want to know that upfront. But for standard pressure rounds, which is what most people shoot anyway, this magazine feeds everything reliably. Real users have put hundreds of rounds through VR magazines of this type without hiccups, from birdshot to buckshot to slugs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this VR Series magazine work with my VR-60 and VR-80?
Yes. This magazine is cross-compatible across the entire VR lineup, including VR-60, VR-80, and VRBP-100 models. You can use the same magazines in all three guns without any modification.
Can I use this magazine with 3-inch magnum shells?
No. This magazine is designed for 2.75-inch shells only. If you need to shoot 3-inch magnums, you'll want to stick with a different capacity magazine or verify your specific gun's capabilities with 3-inch loads.
What makes this factory magazine better than aftermarket options?
This is the actual magazine Rock Island Armory manufactures for their VR shotguns, built to their exact specifications and tolerances. You get the same quality and fit as what shipped with your firearm, with no guesswork about compatibility or reliability.
Is this magazine difficult to load?
The VR magazine springs are fairly stiff to ensure reliable feeding, which can take some practice to load smoothly. The key is making sure the rim of each round doesn't catch on the rim of the round below it during loading. Once you get the technique down, it becomes second nature.
