This was a good question started on this thread, but I thought it could have used a poll.
So how many of us really practice with our iron sights? Obviously a bolt gun that doesn't come with the irons is out, but on those that do come with irons (e.g. AR-15, Mosin, M1903, Garand, Socom II, 30-30, and many many others) how many of us practice with them?
For me, if it has iron sights, I probably won't put a scope on it. I like my AR sights and have never put a scope on it. The red dot/quick acquisition sights are alright, but I just prefer the irons. If I want to do precision shooting, I go to my bolt gun. I do have a scope for my 30-30, but I have shot it with and without.
I enjoy the challenge of the iron sights, but I also like a scope now and then depending on the rifle.
