The sight's can be adjusted by drifting them the way you want it to shoot. I've never heard of the "take down lever" breaking off without help.
 
Sorry to hear about the broken part. S&W will take care of that for you under warranty, I'm sure. I can't recall seeing others complain about that before, but anything man-made can break. Hopefully they will get your gun back to you quickly.

As to the printing left, if you are not used to the M&P trigger, you might try dry-firing the gun while carefully watching your sights. The trigger can take a little different technique. At least it did for me. I had to teach myself to be careful not to "finesse" the trigger like I might get away with on a 1911 or a revolver, but rather to be very deliberate with it. Try pressing it straight through its release without any hesitation while keeping a very firm hold on the gun (more so than you might consider normal).

I did not adjust the sights on my M&P .45 until I had satisfied myself by observing the sights during dry-firing. The problem was mine, not adjustment of the sights. Check into it and see what is happening when your trigger breaks.
