Yes, I agree the 03-A3 is better for shooting. That leaf type rear sight on the 03 is fragile, imprecise in adjustment, prone to move right or left by itself and hard to see especially in bad light.
Plus, the battle sight setting with the leaf down is set at 547 yards, so it shoots way too high at realistic combat distances. Personally I think it's the single worst combat sight ever put on a 20th century service rifle...but secretly I think it's kinda cool (as long as your life doesn't depend on it).
