Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger Kit for Polymer Frame M&P M2.0

This is a drop-in replacement trigger kit for the Smith & Wesson M&P M2.0 polymer frame pistol. It addresses the factory trigger’s long travel, spongy uptake, and extended reset by mechanically relocating the trigger’s起始 position forward. This reduces the distance your finger must travel before the sear breaks, while also shortening over-travel and reset distance. Pull weight can be tuned via the included springs—using the kit’s components with the factory sear and trigger return spring yields a duty-ready pull; swapping in the full spring set brings it down for competition.

Platform Compatibility

• M&P M2.0 (full-size, compact, subcompact)

• Not compatible with original M&P 1.0 or Shield series

• Pre-travel, over-travel, reset: All three distances are measurably shortened
• Break quality: Crisp, with a smooth uptake and positive reset

Install Difficulty & Tools

Difficulty: 2/5 (armorer-level recommended, but doable by a competent DIY user with proper punches).
Tools needed: 1/16″ and 3/32″ roll pin punches, nylon hammer, bench block, small flathead screwdriver (for sear spring). Allow 20–40 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this trigger work with my M&P 1.0?

No. This kit is designed specifically for the M2.0 frame geometry and sear housing. It will not fit the original M&P 1.0 or Shield/Shield Plus models.

Can I use this trigger for concealed carry?

Yes. Using the kit’s springs with the factory sear and trigger return spring produces a pull weight in the 4.5–5.5 lb. range, suitable for duty/carry. For competition, swap to the full spring set for a lighter pull.

What is the difference between the Type 3 and classic trigger shoe?

The Type 3 shoe has chamfered front corners (vs. a radius on the classic) and decorative cuts on the visible sides. Functionally, the two shoes are identical—same geometry, same performance. The Type 3 offers a slightly narrower feel at the pad.
