Guns are made with sights for a reason; except for extreme CQB, use them.

You didn't quantify, but I'll assume that "extreme CQB" means outstretched arm distance. The problem with this is that if the BG is in the process of drawing his weapon to shoot at you, it doesn't make a difference whether his shot takes 25 msec or 5 msec to reach you, in the extra second it takes you to find your sights you are risking taking a debilitating hit. Anything inside of 20 feet you should be (and will be) point shooting in order to get off the first shot. No way you should need to use your sights at that distance for a COM hit. Hopefully you will have time to get your gun up if he's more than 5 feet away, otherwise you will be shooting from the hip, which believe it or not is also easy to miss from at 3-5 ft. if you don't PRACTICE.
