It would not cause a problem. I'm just saying that if you look from
behind the gun, it will look right, if you look at it from another
direction, you might notice that the model was not fully skinned (the
artist did not waste time on polygons which would not be seen from
behind the gun, they are usually bright blue) or might even be missing
some polygons.

Yes, they are identical, they are loaded and rendered by the same
functions in the engine, with no special distinctions between them.
