Never tried the KJW M9, but I looked at reviews for both of them (having to have read at least 10 each, and looking around for any technical errors that the guns may have had).

I have to admit, I stuck with the HFC M190. More replacement parts, high velocity, works like a charm with Marui M9 mags, etc. Only issues are no decocker in the safety, which is an unrealistic yet good point for me, and the trademarks (But it's for shooting, not for showing off).

Either way, other comparisons showed them on par, and 2 reviews done by the same guy on each gun gave them the same rating in each category.
However, another review on Arnies had the KJW M9 having rounds rolling out the barrel every once in a while, and a BB ejecting like a casing once (Yet, as AvTomAt kindly pointed out, it may be a lemon).

Either way, I can't tell you really which is better. They perform the same, but each has their high and low points. Your choice, review on both can be found at www.arniesairsoft.co.uk .
Cheers, and good luck.
Nate

Since the bbs eject like casing id stay away from the one and just buy a KSC glock or WA Beretta

WA Beretta's are expensive, and once again, IT MAY HAVE BEEN A LEMON. The other reviews were great, and that review said he's fired countless rounds and it never happened again after that, so I'm assuming no.
He wants a Beretta. Stay on topic, this is between 2 guns.

Thanks bob for the reply.
Thanks for replying soft but i only want the HFC or KJW full metal beretta.

Would be nice if anyone that actually shot or owns one or both of these to give me some personal info.

Mine's on the way, but it's a custom order so it doesn't get here in a month.
I've fired a used one, and I have to say I love it. The recoil's better then a .22, it's an admirable gun.

You will be happy you did. I've heard of only two or three people who have had problems with their KJW M9's. I absolutely love that gun and will never be without one.

I have had no issues with my KJW M9. It sometimes goes through a mag a little quick but then again, the mags have high flow valves in them. I don't know anything about the HFC so I couldn't compare the two but I do love the KJW. So far, its been bulletproof.

I still stand by the KJ zm9 all the way though mine broke in two places. The safety broke on me but that's my fault for playing with it so bloody much. Then my barrel broke in two while shooting. I think this was just a factory screw up because when I first got it, there was a white line exactly where the barrel broke. Oh well, it was still a damn good pistol and I used it as my only gun is a night and day game. After it broke I sold it for parts and my two extra mags went to Freedom Fighter. ^

I've always loved my KJW M9. Never had any problems with it, as long as you lube the gun well.

The only down side is the sights. You have to paint the dots yourself, but thats not a big issue.

FYI, HFC just recently released HFC HG199 Metal ( Semi/Full Auto Version ). you might wanna look at that. It has been getting good reviews so far at Arnie's...Trades are shit as usual...but the gun is apparently an overall improvement over their 190 M9.
