Beretta Lugers?

Joining this site has been a long time in the making for me. About a year ago I purchased a book called "The Complete Encyclopedia of Pistols and Revolvers" by A.E. Hartink. I thoroughly recommend the book as it has a plethora of information on a variety of pistols and manufacturers. I found in the book an article about Stoeger and the pistols it sold. It showed the two varieties of the "American Eagle" series of Lugers. It had the normal length barrel and a Navy version. I decided to try to track these pistols down. I went to my local gunshop and asked about the Stoeger Lugers. The clerk looked at me weird and said he had not ever heard of these. I explained my story to him and he didn't believe me. I later came back with the book and showed it to him. He had no luck in finding any. I went online and found the Stoeger website. Not having any luck myself finding Lugers I emailed them asking them about it. They said the old Stoeger company did indeed sell them but had gone out of business. He said Beretta was taking orders for these. I sent an email to Beretta regarding this and have yet to get a reply. He also mentioned your guys website. It has been months now and I have decided to join your forums in hope that you may help me out on this. Does Beretta sell these?
