There are 1,744 entries whose type is not reported, but whose other data suggest a significant portion may be American Eagles.

as a statistic guess I would say:
3916 or 9% of this model were reported - for a statistic guess that is enough. If you take these 3916 as 100%, then 766 AE Lugers are roughly 20%, 1396 non AE Lugers 36% and 1744 u/i Lugers 44%. Therefore I would suppose there were between 20% and 64% AE Lugers, which means about 8700 to 28100 pistols.
