Since everyone seems to promote their own favorite...

Goto a gun store, find out what is your favorite pistol go from there. Online review also helps. Mainly feel if its too bulky/ long/ awkard for you, if you can't get a good finger on trigger you will do poorly no matter what. (Example, I can't get a good grouping with FN Five-seveN despite lower recoil than 9mm because its too long and thus my finger never fully rest on trigger. I can get a solid grip and good grouping with M&P 9mm on other hand.

Out of the box, good performing pistols. (ranking)
NOTE:
KSC=KWA assume its NS/System 7 if such version is available

1911 -> (1)KJW, TM, KSC
Hi-Capa ->(1) KJW, TM
Glock -> (1)KSC, KJW, (1)TM (on 134a)
P226 -> (1)KJW, (2)TM, KSC
USP -> (1)KSC
Beretta ->(1)KSC, KJW (2)TM, (3)WE

KSC is known for being 1:1 or very close in trademark, function, dimension, and weight. The draw back is mainly its hopup system is a single contact point and the bucking will soak up silicon causing it to swell
-> Wallhanger and game gun
KJW is known for making clones of Marui pistol and in certain models being full metal, the benefit is the marui hopup system give better range. The draw back are the lack of trade (with exception of P226, P229 if you buy cybergun KJW ones) and the dimension function are not 1:1 (close, but not exact)
-> Game gun
Marui is known for making relatively reliable GBB functions excellent as a gaming pistol. Upgradeability is on TM's side, most new unique pistol are made by KSC or TM (ie Five-seveN, PX4)
The main draw back is the use of plastic on frame and slide for folks who prefer metal. In certain cases, use of propane long term will damage internal (Glock, 5-7 are notable)
-> game gun

WA are pistol that try to make fucntion as real as possible however, being made of completely plastic it can only run on 134a unless upgraded. WA generally are wall hanger

WE are Marui clone that offer more affordable price compared to KJW. The biggest draw back is the quality of the parts, and finding replacement when it break (many parts are proprietary)
