I say the top one as well. Isn't this gun non-canon? Nice models by the way.

lol The poll's evened out. :o

I voted top 1. It'd be easier to hold in real life in my opinion, but the butt of the gun in the animated series was the bottom one so... I dunno Lol

Indeed there is one already out... but I wanted to make my own gun, plus mine will have a texture :)

I think if you do a hybrid of the two, giving the top one a retractable stock, you have a winner.

But, unless that occurs, im going with the bottom one, not only because it (from what i've read), is more accurate, but also because I like the idea of a retractable stock.

I think that they look too bulky. That is probably how they're supposed to look though. I like the 2nd ones stock better.

I know BF2 cant handle many poly's, but i think if you either did some smoothing or added some detail (ripples or boxes or something) around the stock/butt area that would really do these models well.

I did the models as acurate as i could based on both reference pics. I will leave them as they are, if you dont like'em, dont use'em :) I just wanted to know which one the community liked better so i texture that one and not the other one :)

Oh no its not I dont like them. It was more of something I saw that I thought could be improved. Models are rare in BF2, so expect no complaints from me. Simply a suggestion.

Jabba, why did you model the carrying strap? In-game, it will look like a band of steel painted with a cloth scheme.
