Based off my experience.... and i've had a lot of pistol experience...

I'd recommend a TM gun, and specifically the G17. There's no external hammer assembly so it's less likely to get dirt in there and jam the internals. Front sight and rear sight are screwed into the slide, add a bit of loctite and you'll never lose the sights on the field from holstering/drawing your gun.

As for losing the gun: Get a pistol lanyard so you won't lose the gun. There's even a hole in the grip on the TM G17 for you to use, unlike the Hi-Capa

As for losing the mag: Stick a small piece of velcro on the inside of your grip so the mag doesn't just fall out. You'll have to pull the mag our for a mag change but at least you'll never lose it. There's even a handy little notch on the front of the grip to help you pull the mag out.



When playing outdoors I carry a MK23 Socom springer, with a pistol lanyard and velcro in the grip. Have never lost the gun or the mag ever. And the springer is more reliable than a GBB cause I don't have to worry about gas leaking out of the mag and having a dead gun on me.
