Replacing an existing unit model

I'm just wondering, If i replace an existing unit model with a custom one, would I keep the animation points from the replaced model?
the model I have doesn't have hand and leg points but the one I want to replace does.

How about you try it? I do not know.
Asking this took you more time than making a test map would have.

No I don't think you would. It would be new animation points but of course same animation sections: base/origin/etc.

I solved it too. Replacing a model overwrites it completely, not partly. Since attachment points are defined in the mdl (or mdx) file, the replacement's new attachment information will be used. You will not keep the original attachment points.
Your final product will not have any hand and any leg points.
EDIT: By the way this is what logic dictates.
