i believe u press 7 and that counts all the faces then divide that by 2 to give u an estimate about how many polys there are. or u can jsut convert to an editable poly and select all the faces.
and i say the maximum amount of polys in a gun for ce should stay around the 1300.

That just gives you the same number as when you press 7.

Well but you don't have to divide 3 and you can set a budget and so on
