If I understand you correctly and this model is low poly, we can put it in a game engine like a UE4, and use it to create a videogame? Tell me please poly count of this model, I'm just trying to understand what number of polygons determine a gun model as low poly or high poly. Thank you.
Also, rifle is fine <3

Great tutorial! The way you explain n-gons vs triangles vs quads in hard surface modeling is super clear. I especially liked the visual comparisons showing how each impacts shading and edge flow. For anyone working in 3ds Max, understanding when to use quads vs n-gons can make a huge difference in smoothing and subdivision.

Would be cool to see a follow-up demonstrating common pitfalls (like hidden n-gon artifacts) and how to clean them up in complex meshes.
