The 280 fps (HK45) to 202 fps (M&P) are both TM pistols. I was surprised by the low fps of the M&P.

I just checked redwolf for M&P.... they list it at 280 (top/green gas)
Airsplat 300 fps for M&P (no mention of gas type).

Probably just a typo then from ehobby.

Most of my play will be outside.

Does this change things up?

Ehobby's is a typo. my m&p9 chronos at 280 to 290fps on average with green gas with 0.20g BBs.

I have both the hk45 and m&p9 and I personally prefer the m&p9 for various reasons.

- grip selection (S,M, L), helps provide a better grip.
- Slightly better accuracy than hk45 somehow... but could be the grip thing.
- Mags are smaller and look cool with Smith and Wesson trades. Better for games since they are more compact (9mm vs .45 acp mags basically).
- gun is smaller, also the same size as a walther ppq (my fav). very flexible and easy to carry.
- m&p9 has the tanio koba rifled barrel made for it. hk45 I could only find the nineball barrel... I would upgrade the barrel straight out of the box for the better trajectory flight & accuracy.

Otherwise... the hk45 is a solid TM gun, looks cool and might fit better in larger hands. Overall there isnt much difference between TM pistols... they are mostly just superb.

however.... I personally find the TM 1911 to shoot the best... really accurate with the single action firing and the trigger reset is amazing. really short trigger pull as well. If you don't have one or haven't fired one... try one. It is amazing.

Ive also heard the TM five seven is dead accurate... and good things about the PX4 as well. But I dont have these so I can't comment much on them. ;d

EDIT: Oh I almost forgot to mention. The M&P9 seems to be more favored by Tokyo Marui. They have already released two versions of it... and there seems to be more upgrade parts available for it. Most likely has something to do with Jerry Miculek and Chris Costa or something... haha
