Diego, You are astute. Same firearm. No big difference.

Diego, the LE version has an extra magazine over the non LE Model. There is no difference in the firearm itself. The non LE version has way more units in stock over the LE version and Buds prices are tied to stock level which accounts mostly for the cost difference.

Nothing different. Bud's pricing is due to stock levels; the non-LEO items may be lower than a fixed priced LEO model if the non-LEO firearms are in surplus stock.

The gun is the same the LE version has a extra mag as far as the pricing this is from Buds "Our website updates every 20 minutes, 24/7, with our current inventory and replacement cost. We do not price our guns manually based on our cost in each, rather we use a live download from manufacturers and distributors to set our price based on our current replacement cost. As our cost changes, the corresponding website price of each make/model will change up/down accordingly. Although our profit margin remains unchanged, our advertised prices will change frequently, sometimes several times per day."

I just bought the $433 one and it's the same gun. It's a great value. It's a polymer frame but there are steel inserts anywhere there are working parts. I highly customized mine for USPSA competition and am waiting for a custom holster. My SP-01 holster doesn't fit as the slide is a little wider. Love the wider rear portion of the slide. Makes it super easy to rack. Accuracy to 50 yards is phenomenal. Shoots fast too. You'll love it.

Diego - Check the $433.00 one again ... you will see it is now up to $443. Bud's stock levels has NOTHING to do with their prices. This is a misconception, being perpetuated by some who answer questions here, who want to appear more knowledgeable. Actually, as randi i said, Buds prices are dependent on the prices manufacturers are charging for replacement items, and change often, based on information supplied directly from the manufacturers. This is essentially the same firearm, even though the LE version comes with an extra magazine. The price difference is based on the replacement cost of the particular item from the manufacturer.
