I don't know much about sigs, but since the Ruger SP-101 is the smaller version of the GP-100 and a GP-model is the next gun I want I know a bit about it. And I know the SP is acurate, reliable, sturdy, and nice-looking.
As for revolvers versus autos on general, they both have advantages and disadvantages. When I'm 21 I'll be going for a Smith Airweight.
Revolvers...
The average number of rounds expended in a mugging, home defense situation, etc, is 2.3 rounds. So if you can't save yourself with five or six, you're probably not going to do it with ten, or twenty for that matter.
The versatility of the .357 Magnum revolver is that it can fire .38 Specials as well, making for cheaper and easier practice. And the more you practice, the better you get.
Revolvers basically never jam. And you might say "Well my auto hardly ever jams." But it only takes one jam to put you in a bad sitation. "The loudest sound in the world is a click when you want to hear a bang or a bang when you want to hear a click." Also, if a primer fails to activate, with a revolver you just pull the trigger again and it moves a new bullet in line. With an auto you have to shuttle the slide and let the bullet out.
Power. The .357 is pure, unadulterated velocity, and it puts good-sized holes in whatever it hits. It doesn't have the bulk of a .45 ACP bullet, but it goes faster. Think of the difference as getting hit by a baseball from a medicine ball.
Revolvers are simple. Push a button and the wheel falls out. Six chambers. If it's loaded or unloaded it's quite clear. No magazines and slides to check. Pop the cylinder in and pull the trigger--gun goes bang. No safeties, no slide catches, no nothing. Just bang. That's what you want in a personal defense situation.
Granted, autos have advantages as well.
More bullets, for one thing.
Generally lighter trigger pull, though many small autos are DA, so the trigger pull would be the same as a revolver.
Usually reloading is faster, but if you practice you can make a revolver just as fast. Jerry Miculek can fire six shots from a revolver, reload, and fire another six in 2.99 seconds. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giSaNiQ-Wb4 ) So revolvers aren't slow.
It's really personal preferance--whatever a person thinks is right for them. Because either way you can't go wrong.
But I don't kick down doors for a living, so I think five or six is enough.
"Six bullets... more than enough to kill anything that moves."

tokarov Old Lord Brocktree Correction, they rarely jam. If you never clean them, they will jam. thats if your a ******** idiot (glock enthusiasts) ooops lol kidding, glocks are ok but my point is they are very simple to use, people without any prior knowledge to handguns can use them and figure them out with little instruction
When it was first issued, the M-16 was said to enver jam, so they never had cleaning kits.
Guess what happened?
One guy told me a story of how they were in a firefight, and nine people in his unit jammed their rifles.
