American Eagle Luger

Mitchell Arms stainless steel Lugers were manufactured by a company in Texas, then I read that Stoeger who owns the trade marked name "Luger" sued Mitchell Arms for trade mark infringement. Mitchell Arms settled the suit by dropping the pistol from production, after that, if I'm not wrong Stoeger began offering that sort of gun with their name stamped on it.

Some collectors apparently get Mitchell and Stoeger Lugers mostly for curiosity or for their "future" collector value as they are no longer made, BUT, for what I've heard both the Mitchell and the Stoeger stainless steel luger were not that good at all. IMHO.
