Has anyone else here had problems with their factory front night sight on the S&W M&P Pro 9mm? I bought my M&P in March and had put maybe 300-400 rounds when I noticed the front night sight had broken (I could see the tritium vial had cracked and there was no "glow"). So, I sent it back to S&W in May and they put a new front sight on it for free.
So, I take the gun with me to Massad Ayoob's MAG 40 class in June and put no more than 500 rounds through it. It's been in my safe ever since. Took it out this evening and I notice the front sight is dead, again! The tritium vial does not appear to be broken or cracked, but there is no "glow".
Has anyone else had this problem, whether on the M&P Pro or another gun? I don't get it...I have had Sigs with night sights for years and never had a problem. I plan to send it back to S&W, but I'm wondering if they are going to say I have somehow abused it (which is definitely not the case).
