I think John may have nailed it with his thoughts on balance and weight. The different width's might also be more visually appealing to the shooter while looking down the barrels at your target. It would be interesting to know if these various width ribs were specially ordered or just the result of Parker Brothers trying to meet the customers request for a certain weight gun?
