Below 2 pounds is probably dangerous in a carry gun for most people. For me, I can live with up to 5 pounds or so if the travel is about 1/8 inch. Its the heavy + long combination that makes a gun useless to me, and I dislike long travel in general even if I can manage it, like a glock.

I agree, i wouldn't want anything that light. Like you i just don't want a long pull. If the the travel is short (like i'm looking for) then i really wouldn't care to have it any lighter than 4.5 pounds.

For a carry gun, if you go with the M&P, I would put in the Apex Duty Kit. I would advise against any lighter trigger pull. That's what I use in my Pro for IDPA. Just have the standard trigger
