HFC and KSC Glock 17

I want to get a Glock 17 and I have the choice between these to sales:
1) Stock HFC Glock 17 with metal slide for $120
2) KSC Glock 17 with metal slide and high-flow valve for $250

I heard that KSC's are better and worth more than HFC's. But I'm not sure if it's worth paying twice as much for it (even if it has a high-flow valve). What do you guys think? And if you have some info about them that might affect my decision please let me know. Thanks.

HFC has poorer quality control and their parts are harder to come by. KSC on the other hand are well built (esp. their glocks) and now with Tirador, you can get ANY replacement part you want. You shouldn't even be thinking on this. KSC all the way. remember, buy cheap, buy twice.

If you have to get a Glock 17 first choice should be a TM 3rd Generation. If you want a KSC Glock get the 19.

I want to buy one of the guns that are stated in my first post as they are available at this time. So based on their price what is the better choice?

KSC.

HFC's are pretty sketchy. Some people like them, but... their QC is preeeettty shoddy... Judging from the Darkhawks, and glocks I've seen.

Well heres the thing if you are on a tight budget the HFC Glock 17 is fine but don't get the Darkhawk as that has feeding problems while the Glock 17.

But if you want something that will last KSC is good

Arnies Airsoft Review
HFC Glock 17 - 9/10
KSC 9/10

Not much difference but read reviews

Truth is all guns break down sometime (Yes even TM pistols, I know cause of my TM 5.1 Hi-capa) it all matters on time, do you want one now and have money left to spend on other stuff, or do you want to go big and wait to save more money?
