So I have been wondering for a while, when I buy a perm why doesn't it have "LE" after it? I used to see it all the time, if I was killed it'd say "L85A1 MOD LE" I bought an L8 MOD for perm and it doesn't have "LE" at the end of it, neither does my perm REC7. I have been told it means that it's perm, but if it isn't then what does it mean?
