If its an M9 you're looking for, I'd recommend staying away from the clones. KWA/KSC and Tokyo Marui would be much better. Speaking from experience here, I own a WE M9, and while its got a good heft, magazines are pretty bad, its not consistent in its shots, and the hopup isn't adjustable so I cant do much about it.

If you want the best out-of-the-box M9, go for the KWA M9 PTP. It doesnt have much in the way of upgraded parts (most parts are KWA proprietary) yet since its a new gas system, but they'll start popping up soon. Besides the KWA/KSC NS2/System7 system is one of the most gas-efficient ones right now.

For upgradeability Tokyo Marui would be better. Almost all upgrade parts are made for the TM, and clones like WE sometimes have trouble accepting them. A TM with metal slide/frame and basic propane upgrades (valves and such) shooting at 300fps will still shoot and feel much better than a potmetal WE shooting 330 fps.

AV Fact: I've seen KWA M9 PTP's on here that are in the same price range as the KJW M9 listed on 007Airsoft, which is half plastic, and a TM clone.

Out of those two (although I dont know why you would want two of the same gun) the KJW Glock would be a better choice.
