Vent rib barrels??

Are the Topper Classic and Topper Trap barrels the same?
This is the day the Lord has made.  I choose to rejoice and be glad in it.

Heck, does anybody on here have a Topper Trap Gun? I have been wanting an H&R trap gun but, money is a little tight. If the only difference is the stock, you could get the barrel and put a monte carlo stock on it to make it shoot high. You may have to call customer service on this one and see if you can get a straight answer. JamesIII

Yes, the barrels are different lengths, but does the vent rib taper down towards the muzzle as on many trap barrels? If they both use a straight vent rib then the Trap Gun barrel is just a longer hunting barrel and sight adjustment is made in the stock height. JamesIII
