Sterlingworth Barrel Rib Question

Not sure if this is in the right forum or not but did the Philadelphia Sterlingworths use any different style rib other than the concave or swamped rib style? I have a 12g and a 16g Sterlingworth and they both have this style rib. I'm looking for a 20g and just curious if the 20g will have same rib style. My Ithaca NID Grade 1 20g has a flat rib and just wondered if Fox ever used a flat rib. Thank you.

A very few graded gun production cards request a flat rib. I can't imagine such a special-order feature on a standardized, made-for-stock gun as the Sterlingworth.
The Savage SP-/SPE-Grade guns had a flat rib.

What about the Deluxe with the mid bead? Are they also swamped ribs?

Same rib. Just mid bead added.
