I haven’t seen much discussion of this gun but I haven’t been around in quite a while.

If you have one what’s your honest opinion of the trigger. Seems like a sweet gun but I’ve watched a few videos and they have conflicting opinions of the trigger.

Can this gun be bought in the commie states with 10 round mag restrictions.

Mine weighed in at 4.2 lbs on a Wheeler digital trigger pull gauge after an initial polishing of the trigger bar and striker block face, and 3.8 lbs after it had several hundred rounds through it. For comparison, a regular 2.0 OR with way more rounds through it comes in at 4.0 lbs on the same trigger pull gauge.

If you pull the trigger slowly, it feels like it has a grit or lurchiness that's not present on my polymer guns. My comparison pistols are 3 full size M&Ps, all of which have the striker block with the sharply beveled edge, and a 2.0 Compact that suprisingly came with the rounded/radiused edge striker block more similar to an Apex striker block.

However, if I'm not pulling the trigger at a slow pace, I don't really notice it.

None of the S&W Spec Series M&P have been available in ban state configurations, so if you don't have an FFL willing to pin magazines or swap them for the ban state mags, you're going to be out of luck.
 
I had one, was pretty much a catch and release.
Like Beju, I felt the trigger was gritty and I polished up the bar and striker and it cleaned right up.
For my XXL hands, I thought the trigger pull was a little long. But I like forward triggers, 1911/2011 style, and in all my pistols I’ve done trigger work…

It was a great looking, very nice shooting gun.
In the end, I put a couple hundred down range, it didn’t do anything better than my Staccato P and my Sig Legion X5. I had no reason to keep another target/range pistol in my safe.
Aesthetically… Smith knocked it out of the park with this one.
