Default Rib Width Question

Here is a photo showing a pair of barrel ends. Note the rib width difference. Both are from DHE 20ga's, the top one being an original 24" from 1910 and the bottom being a 1927 32". However, I have a 28" 16ga with the narrow rib and a 32" 12 ga with the wide.

I have not seen any mention of rib width in the Parker literature, yet there are rib width differences. My research letters on these guns are silent about rib width.

Anyone have any information about this matter?
