Ghost,
It's hard to go wrong if you buy an AEG from a company known for decent quality. An AEG purchased from CA, G&P, G&G, KWA, KA, VFC, etc is probably going to work fine out of the box and be relatively compatible with aftermarket parts should you have the desire to upgrade in the future.
Most V2 gearbox guns accept standard aftermarket parts even if they there are slightly incompatibles with externals, etc. As mentioned, KWAs (and ICSs) have a few major proprietary parts like the gearbox shell, but, in general, the internal V2 components are all aftermarket compatible.
Your best bet is to find the rifle that you think looks the best and fits your play style and budget. If you're keen that your AEG be realistic in appearance, then a G&P or VFC might suit you better than, say, a CA or plastic-bodied G&G Combat Machine.
If you absolutely must have trademarks, or you'll only settle for an H&K 416, then your options become more restricted, but the manufacturers that you have to choose from also constricts, which might make it easier for you to make a decision.
Remember, pretty much no matter what AEG you buy, you'll very likely be able to change out gearbox components should something break. It's a bit harder and more expensive to swap out an entire metal body, or swap around major body components. So buy what you think looks good and worry about the internals if and when they decide to break. Save performance upgrades until you've played a good number of games with your new rifle and understand how it performs stock and what you really to fit your requirements on the field.
