One of the ranges I frequent is indoors and the light is shadowy and weird. I'm getting old and I have a hard time seeing the front sight if it's a tiny little front sight like on my Chief Special or Walther PPK.

If I'm at that range, and shooting those guns, I use buff colored targets so the front sight shows up better. IPSC or IDPA silhouettes or the NRA TQ-15 and TQ-16 targets. With those guns most of my practice is at 5-7-10 yards, with a little bit at the 15 yard line.
