The only thing I have really noticed about it is here:

A couple of excerpts...

Unsure of who you would need to speak with in your chain of command to find out the legal view on your particular unit, but it would be interesting to know more when you find out.

Not to get to deep into LEOSA vs a shall issue CCW... The above is the main difficulty with LEOSA. There is no requirement to issue required ID, or a penalty for not issuing the required ID. So LEOSA can be extremely selective depending on department/unit viewpoints, because they can simply refuse to issue a required ID with no penalty or remedy(federally speaking). It's effectively "may issue" if you care to use that term.

Hope that helps.
