The following firearms were used in the movie Battle Royale:
Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 19
Boy #20 (Kyoichi Motobuchi) is given a Smith & Wesson Model 19 revolver. Upon his demise, it is claimed and used by Boy #5 (Shogo Kawada). He later gives it to Boy #15 (Shuya Nanahara) as a gesture of good faith.
Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub Nose
During the lighthouse shootout Girl #19 (Chisato Matsui) grabs a Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub Nose revolver with rubber grips off of a table holding several of the student's weapons. The weapon is likely intended to be Girl #2 (Yukie Utsumi)'s weapon. After the shootout, Shuya retrieves the Model 19 and gives it to Kawada.
Colt Python
Boy #17 (Mitsuru Numai)'s weapon is a Colt Python revolver. After his death the gun is used by Boy #6 (Kazuo Kiriyama). Shogo Kawada and his girlfriend Keiko are also seen with Colt Pythons during a flashback to one of the previous "games".
Glock 19
Girl #8 (Kayoko Kotohiki)'s weapon is a 2nd Generation Glock 19 with a stainless steel slide.
Beretta 92FS
Boy #19 (Shinji Mimura)’s weapon is a Beretta 92FS Inox.
Browning Hi-Power
Girl #12 (Haruka Tanizawa) is assigned a Browning Hi-Power pistol. In a continuity error, Girl #10 (Hirono Shimizu)'s M1911 switches to a Browning Hi-Power during her initial appearance.
Walther PPK
Girl #19 (Chisato Matsui) is given a Walther PPK at the beginning of the game, but never uses it, opting instead to retrieve a S&W Model 19 Snub Nose during the shootout at the lighthouse.
Colt M1911A1
Girl #10 (Hirono Shimizu)’s weapon is a Colt M1911A1 pistol (though it is initially replaced with a Browning Hi-Power due to a continuity error).

After Hriono drops her and it is picked up by Mitsuko M1911A1, it suffers from another continuity error and changes again, this time into a Colt Combat Commander.
M1911A1 WATER GUN
Kitano uses a water gun made to look like an M1911A1 during the final scene.
Shotguns
Franchi SPAS-12
Boy #5 (Shogo Kawada)'s assigned weapon is a stockless Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun. As with most on-film portrayals of the SPAS-12, the semi-automatic setting is ignored in favor of the manual pump-action setting.
Remington 870
A short-barreled Remington 870 with a pistol grip and vertical foregrip is seen in the weapons stash in the lighthouse, but is never used.
