1. Right click on an object, and select properties. It should list the poly count there.

Use the keywords: weapon skinning

1> You can also go to File->Summary Info.There u'll find the list of meshes used in the Scene,each of their polygon and vertex counts.
2> First put on the "UVW Map" modifier probably planar to the left or right viewport.Then you have to add the "Unwrap UVW" modifier.You can learn how to unwrap UVW from the usual tutorials and help files of 3d Studio Max.
