Trying to Cut down. Sorry. When I attach Models It fcks it all up and when I try to use the Multi Unwrap tool it refuses to work in my Max.

dont use the multi UV tool, attach it all to one object.

If you plan on separating each bit in the future for export or w/e, just give each part a different material (each material can use the same textures etc) then when it comes to separating them just select the material ID and detach.

Is there anyway I can Attach the objects and Not lose the UVs? There are 3 parts, As shown from pictures. The Ammo, the Base, and Body. Forgive me if that is a very stupid question. I tried google probably hundreds of times on that. Otherwise I'll just create copies of the UV Renders, use it as a "Texture" in the Unwrap UV Window. And place accordingly to what space is left over with help of PS.

attaching an object to anouther object wont affect the UVs unless your max is super screwy...

When I map the UVs, and then attach. The model that is the "base" of the attachment completly loses it's UVMaps. I even check the "Preserve UVs" box. Could it be cause they are on the same Texture Channel?

Edit:
Being the moron I am. I realized that the "Preserve UV's" Box was messing it up.. I'll get it sorted soon.

For some reason it worked. All UVs are in the same box and it seems ok. I need to reinstall 3ds max or something. I thought Max 9 had an issue like this?

no.

So what should have I done? Just try and re-install and do it again? I lost the UVs for the Stand but that's easy to do and No harm done to the main body or Ammo. As long as it works we're good right?

you most likley have a dodgy script installed, probably the multi object UVer (I've always found it really screwy, why I dont use it) and just uninstall that + any other scripts and see if it helps.

in not, reinstall max.
