The top pic is an AyA #1 which is hand engraved and has a higher level of finish to both wood and metal than the #2. The second pic is an AyA #2 which is mechanically (rolled) engraved. This particular gun has the rolled engraving properly applied, many examples you will find the engraving is not perfectly centered around the cocking indicators. (For the life of me I cannot figure out why AyA can't get this right--especially with a gun at this price point). The third pic is an example of a #2 with poorly applied off-centered engraving.
