In a world where people routinely use laser sights and laser weapons, perhaps you could lower the penalty between the untrained use of one to the other. Keep in mind that the laser sights tend to aim at where the bullet is supposed to go, and may not coincide perfectly with where a laser would go. But I see your point.
