The vent rib on my 32-inch RBL-12 is very low and flat (side to side and breech to muzzle), and certainly not worth $450 IMHO. Also, it has a very low brass bead, barely a hemisphere above the surface of the rib. I just went down to the gun room and checked. At the breech the rib is level with the tops of the barrels. Then for about 20-inches it is above the tops of the barrels. For about the last foot the rib is decending below the tops of the barrels, and at the muzzle the rib is 3/32" below the tops of the tubes.

Last I heard if you don't placed your order this week, your out of luck.
