Following the exploded drawings seems a bit different on the base plate, under the screw.
Anyone know the differences?
Thank you,

Yes they are exhangeable (because the two pistol have the same frame) but they have a different design/shape. I must also add that the shape of the LP10 grip changed slightly over time, I know at least three different shapes from the first LP10 to the current ones.
One more remark about the barrel porting: the LP@ has three ports like the LP10 but the LP@light (short barrel) has no ports.

FWIW, I believe that the Steyr and Anschitz grips are interchangeable. I ordered an after market grip from Rink-Formgriffe for my Anschutz and it is listed together with the LP-10 as the same.
Thank you Gary, i see a little differences on the part figured on exploded drawings. Wish if my seller is so gentle to exchange the grip free of taxes.
Thank you,
LukeP.

As said, the two grips are different in shape but are exchangeable (I did it I have an LP10 and my wife has an LP@ light).
What you should may be do is to test the two grips to find out which one fits the best to your hand and then decide if an exchange is needed.
For information, we do not use any of them, neither the Steyr, nor the Anschutz. On both pistol we use a Rink grip that fits better for both hands and has the advantage of having a plam rest that can be adjusted in tilt something not possible on any of the two others.

Honestly this feature for me, who's a lazy bum, is really important though the balance of the LP10 is truly remarkable. The LP10 finds its own balanced position while the P40 has a higher center of gravity axis. The trigger of the P40 though sounds clunky on dry fire mode is more precise than the LP10.
Haven't seen the P44. I'm getting old already... is Steyr coming out with the electronic trigger. I mean airlines adopted electronic tickets ages ago.

Not automatic, but why would they bother (if they are) if it doesn't give an improved trigger.
The continued widespread use of Steyr at the top level shows that people don't just want an electronic trigger so that they get an "E" on their gun. Shooters just want they best trigger, mechanical or electronic.

A related issue is the design trade-offs required by an electronic trigger e.g. lack of a fully adjustable grip mount on the Morini pistols. A new design that incorporated the adjustability of a Steyr/FWB grip with a Morini electronic trigger could be a winner.

To be fair that's not strictly a requirement of an electronic trigger Fred, it's a requirement of the Morini incarnation of an electronic trigger.
It surely is not beyond the wit of man (/woman) to design a flexible connection.

The pardini electronic trigger unit is tiny in comparison to the morini and allows pretty much any grip type configuration you could conceivably want.
If you click on the picture links, all 3 triggers look different.
And so we have
1. "older Steyr LP10/LP1" trigger
2. "newer Steyr LP10/Anschutz LP-@" trigger
3. "newest Steyr ball-bearing" trigger
All of which can be found on and LP10, but only the last two on an LP-@.
