Dumb question, but what does LE stand for in 45GAP LE?

I'm sure this is a dumb question, but what does the LE stand for on the 45GAP? Does it refer to Law Enforcement, and if so why?

Thank you.

Speculation was that it stood for limited edition, they wanted something other than GAP wrien on the slide of the XD why give glock any credit.

Maybe it stands for "Less Effective".

I have no complaints with mine besides the fact it's not easy to find ammo locally.

Just went shopping at cheaperthandirt though

It is there for the same reason as companies use the word "tactical". It adds a little to the gun/gear that you are buying.

Who wants to buy black boots when you can but TACTICAL black boots?

How about "Lame Excuse" not to re-design the gun for .45 ACP?

This could be fun
