Benelli SBE Rib Height

[mgspencer]

I have Spare Barrels for my SBE and one has a very low rib and my newer barrels have the high rib. When did this change take place? And why?

[mgspencer]

no ideas yet?

This probobly won't help you at all, but my SBE is 2 years old and has a higher one, and one of my buddies dads has one that isn't and his is about 10 yrs old. i guess that gives you a field of view.

I can get you a little closer...My SBE is a 1999 vintage with a low rib and my dad's SBE is a 2003 model with a high rib.

Based on Benelli Southpaw, I would say 2000 or 2001.
