Only plain barrels were offered for the Remington Autoloading Shotgun in the 1905-06, both 1906 and the 1907 Remington Arms Co. catalogs. In the 1908 Remington Arms Co. the option of a solid rib for a list price of $7 extra was introduced. In the 1910 catalog the price of the solid rib was dropped to a list price of $6.75 and a ventilated rib was introduced for a list price of $13 extra.

I have never seen a vent rib with the wide spacing of the rib supports shown in the 1910 catalog.

By the 1911-1912 Remington Arms - Union Metallic Cartridge Co. catalog in which they began calling this John M. Browning designed gun the Model No. 11, the rib supports are shown much closer together.

That is how they remained for the rest of production. Here in the 1923 Remington Arms Co., Inc, catalog.
