The Old Guard is a 2020 Netflix adaptation of a graphic novel by by Greg Rucka (author) and Leandro Fernandez (artist). Rucka wrote the screenplay for the film, which was directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood. It stars Charlize Theron as the leader of an unnamed band of immortal warriors.
Conceptually, the film combines elements of the popular Highlander franchise with the modern John Wick sensibility, presenting an entertaining take on the fantasy of humans that don't age and can't be killed. In a nod to the characters' extreme age (the main characters are all at least several hundred years old) several of them use quasi-historical weapons as well as contemporary firearms.
The following weapons were used in the film The Old Guard:
Pistols
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS pistol (standing in for the Beretta M9) is carried by Marine Corps MPs.
Glock 17
Most of the government agents use Glock 17 pistols, some of which are confiscated and used by the main characters.
Glock in CAA Micro RONI
Andy uses a CAA Micro RONI with a Glock pistol and what appears to be airsoft G&G 556 holographic sight.
Heckler & Koch HK45

Assault Rifles
Heckler & Koch G36
Booker and a variety of government agents use Heckler & Koch G36C assault rifles as their primary weapons.
Heckler & Koch HK416
Several characters use Heckler & Koch HK416 rifles throughout the film.
