Nice model, the handle needs some work, way to square-ish, other then that, it's some great work you have there.

Can someone actually tell me how to (effectively) model rifle handles? Everyone always tells me that it needs work.

I think it has to do with the curves in the handle... I personally think it's nitpicking and your work looks good

If at first you dont succeed, LOWER YOUR STANDARDS.

Poly count is just over 5000 faces. If I sell it off turbosquid I'll probably remove the bullets in the magazine as well as one of the ones in the chamber.

I'm not going to texture it I'm afraid, look at my previous models and you'll find that I'm quite notorious for not being bothered to texture.

omg that look amazing! What program are you using? Try smoothing groups on the handle and barrel (that's what it is called in 3ds max, not sure about other programs)

I'll turn them on for the handle, but why the barrel? They're already turned on there...

But texturing can add that little gem to your model,
Its monotone-us but it pays off, alot.

I hope you reconsider but as it stands its still a pretty good model,
Couldn't pick up any problems, and the full cartirige is a nice touch on the render.

Although i would recommend trying to shoot that thing with out a scope, them iron sights would be very, very painfull in your eye...

And as the thousands bleed stagnant and scream to plead for their lost memories and questions in a melancholy pain and fear.
So I will crouch down, smile and whisper,
No. //BlooD Right, Book by me

Looks good, but please learn to texture, since I doubt you're actually learning anything from modeling these guns. Just practice texturing, it'll make you excell.

I am learning to texture. There are quite a few models that I've textured that don't end up here. Seeing as I'm trying to sell some of these, I reckon they wouldn't sell at ALL with a texture, because my texturing skills are a joke. It's probably going to sell better without a texture. Sure, maybe I'd only sell one, or two, but I really don't care.

If you're intent on seeing a model that I have actually fully textured, then look at the attached image.

Looks really good but the ejection area needs to be considerably taller.

For better grip, start by grabbing the faces on the backstrap and frontstrap of the grip and scaling to 50% on the X axis. That will make your camfer deeper and the grip more ergonomic looking.

Edit: Your rail groves are also too tight. Go to the Picatinny rail wiki page and there are cross-sections towards the bottom.
