M93R is good IMO because its semi, burst, or full auto. Handy for situations where full auto would be needed.

I think KSC makes two (GBBs)(the System 7 being the newer and better one) and I've heard of good things about it, but I've never actually held one.

Just my two cents.
The OP has this as his project requirements:
  • Common, easily sourced parts and strong aftermarket support.
  • Light upgrade path.
  • Easy to learn maintenance.

Although the M93R is one of those guns I always wanted on my wall, aftermarket support is rather slim, mostly standard parts shared with Glocks.

Full auto is the bane of pistols from a maintenance and reliability point of view. Fun, but you really need to know your way around them once the inevitable gremlins set in after a few months use. I read about people bricking their guns from a simple slide swap, and these people knew a crap load about the guns.
