The following weapons were used in the film Assault on Precinct 13 (2005):
One of the weapons in which Marcus Duvall's (Gabriel Byrne) men use are Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns fitted with suppressors, laser sights, and Surefire weaponlights.
At the beginning of the film, Sgt. Jasper (Brian Dennehy) can be seen examining and joking about an M1928 Thompson found in the evidence room. Anna (Aisha Hinds) also takes this weapon for her own use later in the movie.
Marcus Duvall's (Gabriel Byrne) men also use heavily customized SIG SG 552s. These 552s have Aimpoint M68 red dot sights, suppressors, red lasers, flashlights, and forward rail grips. Sergeant Jake Roenick (Ethan Hawke), Marion Bishop (Laurence Fishburne), and Beck (John Leguizamo) all are seen using these carbines. Charles Taylor, the film's armorer, mentioned in a BTS featurette that some of the weapons were electrical replicas to be used when fired at the principle actors.
Wayne County Deputy Rosen (Kim Coates) and Deputy Gil (Dorian Harewood), the guards on the prison bus, are seen carrying Remington 870 shotguns in addition to their Berettas. Roenick also carries a Remington 870 in some scenes.
