Also noted that the metal corner of the slide cover on the right edge is bent'broken and just held on by the camo spray so this gun is going back to S&W today. Very disappointing. It shoots great though.
It appears that they use locktite or a very strong person with a long leverage tool to put that screw in place. It appears it was set in with foot pounds not inch pounds.

Make sure the gun is unloaded, have a friend hold on a padded table top it and use a GOOD Allen wrench with a 10 or12'' crescent wrench to get sideways torque and apply a lot of power and it then should come off.

That the way we got my wife's out! She held it and I did the wrenching
