Also, the Mitchell stainless was made in .45 ACP. IIRC the whole frame was cut in half and widened a bit for the .45. Don't know how many were ever sold though. Don't recall but I don't think Stoeger sold any .45 ACP "Lugers"
As to the Erma Lugers, I have one of the long-barreled versions unfired in my safe. I think it was called the Artillary model but not sure. Sure is pretty but the quality of craftsmanship is doubtful when seen closeup.
