The cons take several [[M16 rifle series|M16A3]] assault rifles from the weapons stash. While they could be M16A3s, the full auto version of the M16A2, they are most likely M16A2 upper recievers, placed on full-auto lower recievers, or genuine M16A2s with drop in full-auto auto sears.
The cons take several [[M16 rifle series#M16A2 Rifle|M16A2]] assault rifles from the weapons stash. The rifles fire fully-automatic, which means that they are actually M16A2 upper receivers placed on full-auto lower M16A1 receivers, typical of all Hollywood "M16A2" rifles.
The prison guards U.S. Marshals and DEA agents arm themselves with SIG-Sauer P226 handguns. The convicts use several P226s captured from the guards, most notabley Cyrus "The Virus" Grissom (John Malkovich), who steals the co-pilot's SIG-Sauer from him after he removed it from the lock box.

When Cyrus throws down his empty M16A3, it changes to a rubber prop featturing the M16A1 style sights and lacking a forward assist, shell deflector, and magazine fencing. It could have possibly been cast from an AR-15/SP1 rifle.
When Cyrus (John Malkovich) takes the guns out of the weapons hold, a few of the cons use Def Tech 1315 37mm launchers, used to look like HE launchers.
One of the cartel members (Thomas Rosales Jr) uses a Colt Woodsman with a modified barrel to thread a suppressor, commonly known as the "Assassin" model. Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) comments that the cons would hear the shot, so he threads a suppressor on it. When Poe dispatches all the cartel members, he takes the gun for his own use, before dropping it diving from an explosion.
