The pull in single action is basically the trigger return spring. And perhaps the sear has been sanded or filed to make a hair trigger. Not supposed to do that to a Dan. The heat treatment on hammer and trigger only hardens the surface. Jeweling reduces the friction of the hammer and can lighten the pull. Below 2 lbs is probably not safe. I have a DW 1911 and a Ruger 1911 that require great disapline to not inadvertently double tap. Their pull is close to 2lb I think. Revolvers won't double tap but you may fire before you are ready.
The Model 11,12 14 and 15 porkchops have the short action trigger. If you use a Wolff trigger return spring it is lighter and smoother in double action. And lighter in SA. The nickel 14 I have also acts like jeweling by cutting down the friction between the lockwork(trigger and hammer) and the frame and sideplate.

My .375SM has a super light pull in single action. That gun you definitely keep your finger away until you are ready! It has caught me off guard, surprising me twice before when I was first getting to know the gun. I should get one of those tools & find out what the actual pull is on that gun.
