Is it worth upgrading a Tokyo Marui or should I go straight to a custom build?

Thinking about picking up a proper sidearm for CQB and weekend games. I've been looking at some Tokyo Marui models over on Airsoft Station and they seem solid, but I've also seen some custom Hi-Capas that are built like tanks. Not sure if I should start with a stock TM and upgrade it piece by piece or just go all in on a custom build. Anyone here gone either route? What's worked best for you?
