thanks in advance
These are both decent brands that come with precisely made and relatively strong gearboxes. Both G&G and VFC have absolutely awesome support when it comes to ordering replacement parts. They are upgradable and usually quite TM parts compatible.

The T4-18 is a HK416-alike... this may restrict some of your external upgrade options. The Recon is an airsoft M4 through and through and you could transform it over time quite easily.

Since this comes down to superficial external design differences, you will need to decide based on looks, ergonomics, and minor features like where you put the battery, what you can attach, etc.

Make sure you actually try these rifles in person. If you are not holding these things in your hands and trying them out in person you're doing yourself a disservice. If this is your first airsoft rifle you may find a gun with a long front rail system to be front-heavy for you. It's better to find out before buying than after.
