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
Booker briefly uses an Heckler & Koch HK45.
Heckler & Koch USP
Andy and Nile use a 2-tone Heckler & Koch USP at several points in the movie.
Makarov PM
A Russian pilot brings a Makarov PM (actually probably a Norinco Type 59 stand-in) onto an airplane, where it is taken by Nile.
SIG-Sauer P226
Andy holds a prop SIG-Sauer P226 with a very obviously plugged barrel.
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.
IMI Tavor TAR-21
Booker uses an IMI Tavor TAR-21 during a firefight. He is also shown holding it on the movie poster.
M4A1
Nile and her fellow Marines are armed with M4A1 carbines.
Norinco Type 56-1
Sudanese guards are armed with Norinco Type 56-1 rifles.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP7
A Heckler & Koch MP7A1 is briefly seen during a firefight.
Sniper Rifles
Unidentified Sniper Rifle
Nicky uses a scoped rifle a couple of times in the film, but we're never given a clear view of it.
Other
FN Mk 13 EGLM
Keane (Joey Ansah) uses an FN Mk 13 EGLM in standalone configuration during the finale.
