I took my Smith & Wesson M&P CORE to the range see how well I could shoot it with the red dot sight attached (Burris Fast Fire III). On about the 50th round the FF III went flying through the air and landed about 30 feet behind me. The mounting plate (provided by S&W) landed in front of me. Upon inspection, the mounting screws (provided by S&W ) had sheared off and are still stuck in the slide.
Can this be repaired by a gunsmith or should I send this in to Smith and Wesson. If Smith and Wesson, would they likely fix it or replace the slide? I've had the gun just shy of a year, so hopefully this would be warranted.
