The receiver and lock plates have near full coverage, deeply cut arabesque scroll patterns with matching engraving on the trigger guards, Aguirre y Aranzabal maker's mark on the bottom, gold inlaid cocking indicators, single selective trigger, and an automatic tang mounted thumb safety. The barrels, forearms, and receivers are numbered "1" and "2" respectively. Mounted on finely checkered, select walnut forearms and pistol grip stocks with silver initial ovals and checkered plastic buttplates. The set includes a leather bound AyA takedown case with polished brass fittings and buckles. The interior of the lid has a leather Aguirre y Aranzabal label. The case includes a total of six choke tubes in two plastic cases, and two choke wrenches. The barrel and stock measurements for the "A" gun are: bore diameter at 9 inches from breech .730/.730 inches; wall thickness at 9 inches from breech .035/.035 inches; drop at comb 1 3/8 inch; drop at heel 2 inch; length of pull 14 1/4 inch; overall weight 7 pounds 9.6 ounces.
