                       *-UPDATE-*

Thank you all for taking the time to look into my problem.

1: So here are the deferens in the normal map and the mesh between shaded smoothe and auto smoothe.

smooth

auto smooth

As you can see, the shaded smooth mesh and normal map do not look professional, and the artifacts appear in the final model.

2: I have already finished the model and textures.

but after some test renders, I find out that I need to redo these areas here compared to the real gun. and I wanted to use another UV map to reduce seams and make texturing easier.

So I know that this is not how the normal map looks; this is how it is supposed to be. compare The text engravings in the old normal map and the new one

old

new

so I think that there is some problem in the baking it self not the mesh shading , it seems like cycles is not casting enough rays and I notice that the baking is so fast compared to old bakes. can anyone help please !
