District B13 is a French Action film, released overseas under the name Banlieue 13.
Seen during the fight in the gambling den, one of Montoyas' men fires a full auto pistol that strongly resembles the pistol used by RoboCop and also used in Underworld: Evolution. Most likely a Beretta M93R with a custom extended front end, though this is an educated guess based on general shape and usage in other movies.
Tomaso grabs a pair of Sig Pistols during a fight. The full size and large aperture of the barrel would indicate a big caliber like a .45 acp, so the assumption is that they are P220s.
Since the SIG pistols are supposedly stolen from the French National police, they should be SIG Pro SP 2022 or 2009 pistols, but they are probably Sig P228 pistols since they don't have the integral rail of the 2022 or the 2009 pistols used by the French.
Elite French Police Captain Damien Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) uses a Glock 32 - chambered for .357 sig. Since Glocks all look alike the only reference to this caliber is a French language article which mentions the actor using a 357 pistol. Since the character never touches a revolver or a Desert Eagle, and that this is a French movie with a French Armorer, I am assuming that his Glock is a Model 32.
Though Tomasos' pistol is supposed to be a compact G32 in some of the scenes he seems to be firing a subcompact Glock. Since he is using the same ammunition (in the movie) it should be the Subcompact Glock 33.
Taurus PT92 (Nickel plated)
Used by the horrifying Carlos Montoya, who looks more like a character out of Sin City than a French underworld Boss, carries what looks to be a nickel plated Taurus PT92.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingEarly on K2 has to decide which gun he wants to used. He has to decide between a Mk23 SOCOM 45 acp and a revolver (to be determined)...
Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe henchman in the back has a chopped down short barreled AR15/M16 full auto pistol based on the Freedom Arms 7" AR Pistol design, however it does not have a flat top receiver like the American pistol, but maintains the carry handle of the M16A1 upper receiver - 5.56mm NATOError creating thumbnail: File missingOne of Taha's henchmen tries to break in the door with an AR15 pistol - 5.56mm NATO
Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn a scene where we see a lot of Tahas' henchmen, the man on the far left is holding a Beretta M12 submachine gun - 9mm
Shotguns
Remington 870 Express
Used by some of Leïtos' men and Taha/K2s' gang members in various configurations.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingOne of K2's thugs has a silver shotgun. Though one may think it's an 870 Marine Magnum, it is merely a Remington 870 Express "pimped out" with a nickel plated finish - 12gaError creating thumbnail: File missingOne of Leïtos's guards holds a taped up Remington 870 Express that has a ribbed barrel - 12ga. These types of barrels are not stock items with the 870 in riot configuration but can be purchased separately.
Ithaca Model 37 Stakeout
Error creating thumbnail: File missingOne of K2's killers chases down Leïto with an Ithaca Model 37 stakeout with 18" barrel on his back - 12ga. Originally listed as a Mossberg, but the pistol grip upon closer inspection is the distinctive Ithaca Stakeout style. This type of firearm is ironically sold commercially as the "Homeland Security" Model 37.
Look at the lower pic. Now I'm not sure what type of AK variant this is. Note the front sight. MPM
Error creating thumbnail: File missingAK104 - new Russian Rifle chambered in 7.62x39mmError creating thumbnail: File missingTwo of Tahas' men - one with an MP5K (9mm) and an AK104 (missing it's muzzle brake and fitted with a Romanian Side Folding Stock) - 7.62x39mmError creating thumbnail: File missingA better shot of the modified AK-104. It looks to be a standard AKM with a Romanian Side folder stock (note the lack of a full sized folding stock hinge on the back of the receiver), that had an AK-104 barrel assembly and gas system installed. The front Krinkov style muzzle brake has been replaced by a standard AK Muzzle nut which would be impossible with the real AK-104 - 7.62x39mm
Yes, one of the henchmen holds a AKS-74U style of weapon with a 5.45x39mm magazine (!) but it has an Underfolding stock. It was probably a 5.45mm underfolding AK that was chopped down by an armorer and had the Krinkov front end installed. There are lots of weird custom jobs in the movie gun world, and 'Frankenstein guns' appear from time to time.
Note: Before the last server crash, someone posted here what sort of gun it was. That information was lost when the page reverted to the last version. If that user is still on IMFDB, I would appreciate them posting again, what type of weapon they thought it was. Thanks MoviePropMaster2008 21:57, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
File:B13 AKSUunder.jpgOne of Tahas' men fires holds an underfolding 5.45x39mm AKS-74U type of weapon.
Colt Model 733
Actually a "733 looking gun". Being a French film and the fact that French Armorers always do strange things with their guns, we see what looks like a Colt Model 733 Short barreled Assault rifle. However the barrel looks a little too long to be the 11" for the real 733 and too short to be the 14" for the 653, so it seems to be an intermediate length barrel (which means it's a custom barrel job from a real M16 carbine). It is seen briefly when Taha's men storm out of the building.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn a blurry motion shot (everyone is running past the camera) one of Tahas' men holds an M16 variant that looks closest to the Model 733 Short assault rife.
Ruger Mini-14
Some of Taha's henchmen can be seen holding Ruger Mini 14 rifles in standard configuration.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingOne of Tahas' guards mans an M240B Machine gun - 7.62x51mm. M240Bs are also mounted on pickup trucks during a chase through the city.
Grenade Launchers
SIG GL 5140 grenade launcher
The standard 40mm Grenade Launchers for the SIG series of Assault rifle are the GL 5040/GL 5041 launchers, built by Swiss Arms. These are seen attached to SIG SG551s throughout the film.
