Default Adjustable Sights on PC Shield

I am confused I called S&W performance center and asked if the rear fiber optic sight on my PC Shield 45 is adjustable, they said NO.
I had emailed the same question to S&W earlier, they said YES.

Obviously I am confused. The rear sight has an allen screw that can be loosened. Which answer is correct. The gun shoots well no issues with 150 rounds. I am left handed and the impact of the bullets is 3-4 inches right of point of aim.

According to the owners manual, windage adjustments should be made by drifting the front sight only, not the rear.
Regular M&Ps say the opposite.
I'd have someone else shoot it to make sure its definitely the gun, before moving anything.
This chart may also help.
Good luck.

You can adjust the sight, it takes a sight pusher to move mine. BTW, it is probably not the sight if you are shooting low and or right as a lefty. Need to work on grip and trigger pull.
