Eden uses a custom suppressed Walther P38 as her main handgun during the capture of the slaver's ship. Latter the same handgun is used by Sol during the highway chase scene.
Bill Neilson (Bob Hoskins) uses a 5" Barreled S&W Model 66 (the stainless steel version of the Model 19) to try and save Prime Minister John Hatcher (Alexander Siddig).
The SA80 assault rifles in this film appear to all be Airsoft replicas with the effects of firing digitally added in. the reason for this is the film was made mostly in South Africa and SA80s are practically nonexistent in South African movie armories as far as we know.
An Armsel Protecta is seen momentarily during the crashed APC scene.

Heavy Weapons
Vektor SS-77 Machine Gun
Instead of the British Army issued L7A2, the trooper on the top of the armored vehicle is using a Vektor SS-77 GPMG. This is because the sequence in question was filmed in South Africa so armorers used what was at hand.

Since the first plaque in the film is heavily implied to take place in or near the year 2010 (with the rest of the film taking place 25 years later in 2035 AD, the use of the L7A2 would still be correct.Error creating thumbnail: File missingBritish Soldier about to fire on Rioters.

Prop Sentrygun
A prop Sentrygun is used during the Border wall scene. it is shown messily destroying a rabbit that gets too close to the wall.
During the hospital scene the DDS troops pass a Vektor MG-4 version of the Browning M1919 machinegun. It's mounted on what looks to be an anti-aircraft tripod and the debris of twenty five years of neglect.
