Short answer, yes.

I have holsters for all my handguns so they are all carry guns.

Long answer
The one I carry the most, is a .380 and the shortest sight picture of all of them. While shooting out to 10 yards it isn't as accurate with the sights I train point and shoot the most with this gun, so, without sights, together we are more accurate.

I agree with MicroGunner, 10" at 7 yards is an excellent goal. I don't grade myself with paper, I have a local range with steel targets at 25'. I consider 5 out of 6 an acceptable showing on the large plates rapid fire. I can run up a dueling tree with their 4" plates and get about 4 out of 5 which is an even more awesome result. A cannot do this with my full sized 45 point and shoot, and my 9mm is too new to have been to steels. This is why I do not yet carry the 9mm much.
