All the Model 12 guys I know, know more about them than I, and say Simmons installed all Simmons ribs. Winchester never made their own ribs for wither the twelve or the 42. The way to know whether it was 'factory' was if the proof mark was off to the side. If not off to the side, it was done for the customer, after leaving Winchester. If Winchester was selling the the gun with the rib, the proof mark was stamped to the side, and then sent to Simmons.
