Ria Imports Vrbp-100-a 12ga Bullpup

The Armscor Ria Imports VRBP-100-A 12-gauge bullpup shotgun is a magazine-fed semi-automatic platform engineered for operators requiring compact profile without compromise on firepower. Built on a 7075 T6 aluminum frame, this 5+1 capacity shotgun delivers the strength and modularity expected in modern tactical shotgun design. Chambered for both 2¾" and 3" shells, the VRBP-100-A bridges the gap between CQB-oriented platforms and extended-range applications in a footprint that excels in vehicle transport, breaching operations, and close-quarters duty.

The 20-inch barrel paired with bullpup ergonomics yields a total length of 34.5 inches—substantially shorter than conventional pump or semi-auto shotgun platforms—while maintaining velocity and pattern consistency across buckshot and slug applications. The polymer stock positioned directly behind the action minimizes sight radius while keeping the balance point forward, aiding recoil management and target transition speed. Ambidextrous controls allow left- and right-handed operation without modification. At 12.56 pounds, the system remains manageable during extended duty cycles, though weight distribution toward the muzzle is typical of bullpup shotgun design.

This platform is purpose-built for law enforcement tactical teams, military applications, and civilian defensive shooters prioritizing compact form factor. The magazine-fed design simplifies ammunition transitions compared to tube-feed systems, and 5+1 capacity meets practical duty loads for most operational scenarios. Buyers should verify local and state shotgun regulations before purchase, as certain jurisdictions restrict magazine capacity or bullpup configurations. The VRBP-100-A competes in the modern tactical shotgun segment alongside purpose-designed platforms, making it a credible choice for operators evaluating semi-automatic alternatives to traditional pump designs.
