If the sight is in a dovetail it could have moved, or the dovetailed rear sight may have moved as well.

Shooting left is pushing the trigger and anticipating recoil. If your first shot of the day is a 10X it ain't the pistol. My bullet holes drift left as I tire.

I do actually think the dovetailed front sight is a little offset to the right.
Not _very_ much, but noticeable.

It may or may not have compounded my tendency to shoot to the left.

I'll have someone take a second look

Mine was the same way, S&W told me it was do to the way there are installed. Something about having the jig not touching the slide during install.
My rear adjustable sight was also off set and when i sent the gun back to S&W the aligned them.

I seriously doubt it moved while cleaning it. I replaced the factory sights on my 1911SC and just about broke my sight pusher trying to remove the front sight.

Saw a sight almost fall off a Kimber this morning.

During an IPSC Match today this guy was shooting a Springfield .45 and along with all of his six or seven technical difficulties with his reloads (two of which were squibs...uh, yeah), one thing that happened that alot of us thought was odd was that his front sight had slid to the left and almost came off of the slide. I guess if not properly installed they can move.
