I've seen those guns for sale on GunBroker, they are PA State Corrections trade ins........I didn't know they used .357's though.
I just got hired as a PA State Corrections Officer and the handbook I got says at the academy I have to qualify with a .38 Special revolver and a 12 gauge shotgun. I hope they're Rugers! 
I would guess they engrave the guns so they can more easily inventory them in the arms room. They are just "tools" to most people, like a flashlight or a set of keys, since many people who use these firearms are not "gun people" like we are.
I have two corrections trade in S&W's that are also engraved or stamped with numbers.

Great job on those two...very tasty. My recently purchased, stainless, 2.75" bbl'd Speed Six came with similar target grips & I had to take 'em off. Just didn't look right to me but I really like the same grips on your two. They just 'work' very nicely on those 4 inchers.
Thanks for posting the pics of your work. Nicely done!

I just picked up two of his refurbished weapons (security six's)and the pictures DO NOT do them justice. great looking guns. Plus with all the work he has put into them they are like new. can't say enough on how nice they look.
I got the two tone 4 inch and the 6 inch socom blue. great weapons. great work. the socom blue looks almost like the standard blued finish just a bit matted rather than shiny.
I think better to do short video of the guns as they would show off the finish in a more realistic light.
