I like iron-sights on rifles if it makes sense, and if the weapon is still useful without them. I mean, what's more interesting? A weapon that's basically just a reskinned chaingun, or a weapon with more than one use?

Like you have an assault rifle, you can lay down rapid fire at closer distances and it does good damage, or you can chose to use the sights at longer ranges for controlled shots (I prefer if you can't fire full-auto when looking down the sights, to further differentiate the modes).
However, if there already is an assault rifle with ADS, there doesn't really need to be another, not for a game like Doom.

Or maybe you have on old world war bolt-action rifle, it's powerful and it has a bayonet for close quarters fighting, but what it's really good at is accurate shots at longer ranges.

On pistols, subguns and LMGs there really isn't any point though.
