looks good but i am leaning towards you starting over or fixing the tris into quads, because tris have smoothing problems
thats all.

Quads are better for smoothing than tris.

Smoothing .... like, when you subsurf
most next gen models should be as many quads as you can get over tris.

Seems your using a load of primitives to build the mesh. I'd say start with something easier and learn to poly-model.

sections 2/3/4 should be together maybe even 1 should be too, but thats up in the air of personal preference.

Nice work, you've improved on modeling. You should take some time to practice smooth groups though, that would make this gun shine.

mm looking good, but i would highly suggest bridging those faces that are different meshes. It will make smoothing go alot easier and its just good practice overall.

but i like it

Some parts seem really blocky like the hand grip and front area of the UMP. Try chamfering or stacking polys.

hahah i asked the same question when i first started, its like smoothing, it divides the angle of the selected edge in half and adds a face at the mid angle inbetween.
