All P08 Commercials and all post-war Lugers are found without the American Eagle, except for Stoeger-marked imports. There are a handful of commercial database reports of AE in the Alphabet Commercial range; these are mostly assembled guns of unknown origin.

I have examined two examples of post-war commercials purporting to be authentic AEs, both were fake (I bought one for the example).

I am confident in the original statement, but would very much like to find originals to prove me wrong. Any post-war non-Stoeger American Eagle needs to br examined closely and critically.
