The commemorative Luger pistols also represent the last of the Mauser-Werke made Lugers shipped through the early 1990's. They were not selling a large number (due to the prices they had to charge) and so didn't make many of any of the variations.

I believe that Mauro just recently posted details of the very last one, an Artillery commemorative that he owns.

These were beautifully made. It would probably cost well over $5k to manufacture one today. While a real Navy could be had for about the asking price, these don't surprise me...
