I also inherited a Colt 1903. The problem with this one is that the rifling in the barrel is pretty badly worn, and the accuracy drops off after 10-15 yds.
Considering its age, the fact that it functions quite well speaks highly of its craftsmanship.
And yes, TTv2, the sights are quite small. As this gun is really meant for "close contact", it was probably shot more "from the hip" rather than actually "sighted" when in use.
