ah awl ways heard ah swamped rib was a frenchie thang, ware the top rib is mostly below the top surface of the barrels...scene it on anglish gons from time to time, as well...
purpose is to help us keep our heads down, so our cheeks would be closer to the comb of the stock...supposedly, we have a tendency to look over the barrels, which makes us shoot low...
least, dats watt ah heard years ago...
an as to concave ribs, well dats ah whole nutter thang...
an hit makes sence dat ah swamped rib would also be concaved...
jes like halloway says an schefelbottoms pitcher shows...
