What is a reliable/ durable airsoft pistol?

Discussion of GBB (gas blowback) replicas.

Ok thanks for the responses, still deciding. But for 100-150 is an airsoft rifle/AEG better than an airsoft pistol? What about in terms of durability, reliability, quality, and lifespan?

For $130-$150, a KWA is a great airsoft pistol.

For $130-$150, an AEG is going to be more effective than a pistol, but it won't necessary be better quality.

Thanks for your help guys.
Deciding on KJW or KWA M9. I hope it's like slightly to barely no difference from the KWA glocks, TM SIG226, and TM MK23 in quality, reliability, durability, accuracy, and performance and will last a long lifespan.

If I am wrong you can correct me.
If so KJW or KWA? Or what about KWC/KSC or HFC?

I really like my KWA KP45 Tactical. I would put my trust into KWA/KSC.

The Three Best airsoft pistols I've owned:
KJW M9 - bleeding Beast
KWA G19 - Also a bleeding beast
WE 1911 - I beat a bleeding bear to death with it and then shot someone

I heard KJW is full metal while KWA has some plastic. Metal does seem more durable. Which one is suggested with performance and overall? Also WE?

The KWA has a plastic outer barrel.

I have had poor results with KJW, especially in the area of gas efficiency. I would recommend the KWA.

Exactly. I've never owned a KJW M9, but I'll take Tim's word for it. I have the other two and they are among the most reliable airsoft guns (which includes AEGs, springers, GBBs, etc) ever made.

my kwa m9 just bleeding broke :evil: .... sure it shoots fine and has amazing performance, when the mag isn't leaking or the trigger is working and it's not losing pieces on you... i think i got a lemon

So the KWA G19 is reliable, how accurate is it? And what about the range?

Compared to the other airsoft pistols mentioned.
