Karl Rehn did a study (2-3 years ago) of handgun shooters using lasers (red and green), red dot sights and conventional iron sights. All were used at varying distances.

Conventional iron sights were consistently faster and more accurate. I was one of the participants (during one of Tom Givens' defensive handgun classes that was held at Karl's facility).

I'll try to find a link to Karl's report.

ETA: Link to Karl's Preliminary Report: LINK

I wonder if this has changed. More people get red dot mounted pistols each year and apparently it is faster as long as you train to not "fish" for the dot. A lot of people add unnecessary movement in their drawstroke to search for the dot but with training I have seen people pull off insane speed.
