Sights on most all early 20th century handguns are tiny. I have revolvers, Colts and Smiths, as well as others, from the period and even "target" adjustable sights are not nearly up to modern standards. And too, compare the sights on the original 1911 and earlier versions of the 1911A1. Very small. Kinda adds to the fun when I try to shoot 'em. I have only one Luger, a nice 1920 alphabet commercial, and tho' the sights are awfully small, they are right on the money.
