Whats Next? m4 vs acr vs sig 556

Hey guys I am an avid airsofter, and I have been airsofting for quite a few years now. I have 2 m4s and I am very happy with the both of them, but recently I have had the opportunity to choose form the "not an m4" pile, and I have come up with a few options. Now before I post the top picks of mine, I'm just going to list a few things I like about the all loved m4.

Pros:
Lightweight, but still has enough weight to it to make it feel good
Feels good in my hands (fairly ergonomic)
Very customizable
Easy to reach the trigger, selector switch etc. while holding it
Easy to maneuver, not too bulky, good for anything (CQB, woodland)
Realistic
Points nicely

Okay so now you have an idea of the features that I like in a gun, I will name my next contenders.

1. The Magpul PTS Masada
Pros:
Very unique
lightweight
supposedly very erganomic
trigger switch (good trigger response)
Good looking
Good sized, (for CQB and Woodland)
Has a lot of the features of the common m4
Adaptable/ customizable
Easy takedown

Cons:
Very Expensive
fps is a little bit slow (330fps) but not too bad, easy to fix
I've heard issues about hop-up affecting the accuracy
Proprietary

2. The VFC Mk16
Pros:
Awesome externals
Good quality internals
good rof and fps (360 ish)
Easily upgradable
Supposed to be ergonomic
customizable
easy break down

Cons:
Not as unique, but still unique
Heavier
a bit bulkier

3. The King Arms Sig 556
Pros:
Unique
Cool electric blow-back
made by king arms so, good quality externals and internals
fairly customizable
looks cool

Cons:
Pricey
A little bit pricey
fps is a little slow (330) but agian, no big deal
not as erganomic

So those are my three top picks, just wondering which one you think would be the best out of the box, I do not plan on doing too much upgrading on them so, I would like it to be ready to go out of the box. They are all based on the m4 lower reciever so that they will fit m4 mags (seeing as i already have a collection of them).
The way I like my guns: Reliable, accurate+ ergonomic, then fps
