In the late 1980s, Izhmekh introduced the IZh-80 pump-action shotgun. It was special in that it could use two different types of magazines: standard 4 round tube magazines, and 4-round detachable box magazines. The IZh-80 is was designed specifically for the Soviet military, and even put into official service. However, it was produced in small numbers, and as no further orders followed, it was discontinued.

The Baikal IZh-81 was developed in 1993, based on the IZh-80. It was the first Russian pump-action shotgun which went into mass production, to compete with other shotgun designs on the open market. The IZh-81 was serially produced from 1994 to 2000.

In 1996, the IZh-80 was "rediscovered" as the IZH-82 shotgun, also known as the "Baikal MP-131K". The MP-131K also featured a selector switch for switching from a magazine tube or box magazine.
