In my former life as a police officer, I found that many fellow cops carried them and loved the model. I shot Sigs on occasion and found them acceptable, but I think the real differences between handguns are very marginal and mostly subjective.
Serious advice to you: Go to a gun range that is also a dealer; most will allow you to rent as many models as you’d like to test fire. Test the Sig Sauer along with several others, both similar and dissimilar.
