Not all models have all these attachment points. It is determined by the model itself. If you have the know-how, you can export the model, convert it from .mdx to .mdl, and open it with notepad to find out what attachment points it has.

Some of the attachment points are more detailed, such as hand,left and hand,right (for most humanoid models) or chest,left and chest,right (for many mounted or four-legged models). Some are even more elaborate or special.
