He actually means an American Eagle. Although oddly enough, the US Army .45 Lugers never had them, just the 7.65mm commercial versions made for the US market.
And contrary to the enduring myth that two were made and only one survived, most scholars think there were 6. Until recently, only #2 and #3 were accounted for, but a .45 caliber Luger carbine turned up with serial number 21 recently. There's some debate over it's the real thing or one of the reproductions made in the 90s (at 10 grand each). |

There must be some copy made in the USA and rechambered for .45 by some gunsmith, just for fun...

An American Eagle? I've seen the Nazi one, but I've never seen one of those. Then again I've never seen one in .45 either................

I would say Colt not putting their 1020 piston upper into production is a bad decision, considering piston ARs seem to be all the rage these days.

Actually, it's not a question of conversion, you literally need to build the gun from scratch. And a Luger is not a simple gun to build, there are a lot of complicated machining operations and tight tolerances involved. The .45 Lugers had literally no parts in common with the 9mm / 7.65mm guns. Everything had to be scaled up. Lugers are big, bulky guns, but all that space is being used, they're quite tight internally.
