I've owned three KJW guns, a Glock 23 (about a year old) and 2 KJW M9's (one two years, the other a few months), and they've worked every time. Leaky mags are the only complaint I've had.

Yeah, KJW is synonomous with upholding quality. The only gun I didnt like after a month was the Para.

I say this not out of which I like the best, but of which I see in the field, and is known to be reliable. I personally own a KJW single stack 1911. Its a good pistol, does its thing without problems. On the other hand, their "variety" is lacking. The only have 2 glock models,  2 1911 models, and a few beretta models, that are worth anything. Everything else sucks. On the otherhand, KSC/KWA have alot of models, but are pretty average weapons. Overall, I think KJW is the most popular becuase of their cost, and performance.

I had a KJW M9 that I wish I hadn't sold.  I liked it a lot, it never failed on me.

I do like KJW.  Seems to be a great blend of low cost and high durability.

Having said that, stay the hell away from the KJW USP.

I had a KJW M9 also that I wish I never sold as well.  It is a very popular skirmish worthy sidearm amongst a lot of airsofters.  Inexpensive yet reliable.  Two words that do not always fit together in the world of airsoft.

I noticed that no one has so far voted for TM.  Its interesting to note that the KJW M9 is a copy of the TM version.  Other KJW models are not up to the same level of reliability as the M9.

I gotta disagree Bob!!! The KJW Glock 19/23 is also a very good sidearm. Its cheap, and reliable. The one thing it has that the M9 doesn't is an adjustable hop up, putting it a little bit above the M9. Only downside, is it holds 5 less BBs than the M9. One thing they both have is the amount of options. There are plenty of parts for M9s, and Glocks alike.

I'm gonna say Marushin.  I've had KJW's, KWA's, KSC's, HFC's, and a few others along the way.  Only pistol to never give me a problem was my Bren Ten, but shot waaaay too hard.  

I've played with WA's, but they loose points for me in not being able to use green gas with them without them breaking on you, and costing a shitload just to get them field ready.

KJW is a great company, but I'm gonna lean towards marushin on this one.
