Default Bodyguard 380 front sight adjustment

I recently bought a new bodyguard 380 and had to send it to s&w for repair work. After 3 weeks I finally got the pistol back only to find the front sight completely loose. Can anyone tell me how to Align the sight and tighten it. How do i tighten the wedge?
Thanks

Welcome from Pennsylvania.
I do not own a Bodyguard 380, so am of no help.
I guess if all else fails a trip back to the mothership will be the solution.....
But first, do a Google search... Others have had this problem and found solutions.

Thanks for the welcome! I watched a you tube video and the person used red loctite.

Be sure to sight the gun in and confirm that it shoots to point of aim with the sight in position before you use red loctite.
