Lower Rib question

[Boxbirder]

I have possesion of the gun right now until next saturday. I have tried to take pics but every one comes up dark or glared. I will have some pics taken tues. Who could I overnite this to, get an inspection and figure out what's up with it.
The dealer I work with was surprised I found this, he's a little stumped on this.... when you look at the bottom rib it doesn't appear to be seperated from the barrels, everything on the end of the barrels look good.

If you really want to address the problem immediately upon gaining ownership, about $1200 should be put into escrow in case a minor inspection turns into a complete rib removal and reblue. If there is barrel corrosion, the deal should be off. Keith Kearcher removed the damaged and separated ribs from my vent rib D Grade pigeon gun and cleaned everything up for a very reasonable price.
