JW 77,
Does MGW make a sight pusher for the M&P now or were you using one of their other tools (such as for a Glock)? I just checked Brownell's and didn't see a pusher for the M&P.

I attempted to use a sight pusher for a Glock and it was very obvious it was the wrong tool for the job. The guy who owned the tool used it on his M&P and while it didn't break the slide it left gouges in the finish. I don't know what brand the tool was.
I used a padded machine vice and a brass drift. The slide was secured just under the sight cut to support the top of the slide and to avoid pinching the bottom where the rails are. Based on how tight the sight was I would not feel comfortable using a tool that would secure to the bottom of the slide.
I use the MGW Glock sight tool and remove the slide cover plate and striker assy on the S&W and use the tool 180 degrees differently than on a Glock slide.

Here's a pic of my wifes M&P9. I put on arrow on the 90 degree cut of the slide track/rail. I believe this 90 degree cut to be a weak spot. I also wonder if say after 10-15K rounds maybe the front locking block (which has the front integral frame rails) should be replaced as a PM item?
