Don't use meshsmooth in a game model.

take the all textures off...It would look better IMO.

Change the background color to something lighter too, it helps to see something better when you render it.

The AK's not bad, but its a little bit out of shape in a few spots.
I noted some of the more noticable things on the attached file. Fixing these shouldnt realy change your polycount.

And the other one.

Having owned a couple AK's These things were obvious to me, but most folks would never notice. Anyhow, keep it up
