Really, there isn't any difference. LE basically means law enforcement, which if you are a qualified person you get a discount on the firearm, normally.

Jessica, no difference in the firearms themselves. The LE version is specifically marked by the manufacturer for sale to LE/QP.First Responders. The LE version normally has a QP discount whereas the standard 590A1 does not. No firearm difference.
