Granted, it is MUCH easier and usually faster to use a better sight than what comes stock on many service-style handguns. I would suggest that you use whatever you would be most likely to use in a defensive encounter IF that is what your gun is primarily used for. If you have a gun that is not particularly being saved for that role and you just want something to play with, get some better sights and have a nice trigger job done on it and I think you will see that 1-200 yard shots will become fairly commonplace for you IF you practice regularly.
