Display 1928A1 receiver needed

[Colt21]

             Is there anyone out there other than phila ordnance that makes a 1928A1 display receiver? Bob was going to make me an unmarked receiver and just emailed me to tell me that in attempting to do this, It disrupted his new production process because He now does the engraving during the beginning of the process. The reason that I want an unmarked receiver is so that I can polish the blanchard marks off of it first before sending it out to be fine bead blasted and blued/ engraved.  This will ensure that it matches the AO lower with a 68 thousand serial number and original du lite finish. I have access to someone who can laser engrave the receiver including the proper inspectors marks. 

           Is there anyone else who makes receivers for display that can accomodate my request?  Thanks

I believe he is referring to his company Ben Edward Designs. I could be wrong.
