H&K MP5

During the bus incidents, N.Y.P.D. SWAT members can be seen carrying two versions of the MP5, specifically the MP5A2 and MP5A3, the former of which have Surefire dedicated forend weaponlights as per norm with SWAT-issue MP5s. FBI SWAT members can also be seen carrying MP5A3's fitted with laser pointers and red dot sights during the raid on the terrorist safehouse.

Remington M700 Sniper Rifle

During the incident with the second bus, N.Y.P.D. SWAT marksmen can be seen getting into position with M700 sniper rifles.

Uzi

During the incident at the schoolhouse, the terrorist holding hostages can be seen wielding an Uzi as he paces about. Despite having the responding police and FBI personnel out-gunned, he's still easily taken down when Agent Hubbard catches him off guard. One of the terrorists in the safehouse raid is also seen using an Uzi. This is a slight cultural irony, as the Uzi is primarily produced in Israel, and is being used by Arab terrorists.

AKM

When the FBI raids the terrorist safehouse, one of the terrorists engages the FBI in a shootout using an AKM rifle, though is inevitably taken down, even shooting one of his own comrades when he strays into his field of fire.

Remington 870

The Remington 870 shotgun makes several appearances in the film, mostly in the hands of Agent Hubbard's men when conducting raids to provide extra firepower that their pistols lack. N.Y.P.D. officers responding to the schoolhouse incident can also be seen carrying the Remington 870 Folding Stock version, albeit with standard-capacity magazines.

M16A2

The M16A2 assault rifle features prominently in the movie, almost every soldier involved in the occupation of New York City is seen carrying one. A notable point in the film is that when Maj. General William Deveraux (Bruce Willis) is describing what the occupation will entail, he distinctly mentions the "M16A1 assault rifle", though the U.S. military had switched to the M16A2 years prior to the events in the film, and indeed the A2 version is the most prevalent, but sharp eyes can spot at least one appearance of the A1 version (I think it's in the hands of a soldier going across the Brooklyn Bridge when martial law is first declared). Another M16A2 can be briefly seen carried by one of the terrorists holding hostages during the second bus siege.

M60 Machine Gun

In several scenes, Humvees can be seen with M60 machine guns mounted on them, most notably when the Army crashes the FBI raid on the Redhook chop-shop.

Beretta M9 (M92FS)

Another weapon used by the Army is the Beretta M9 pistol. One soldier can be seen holding one on the FBI Agent that the soldiers mistake for Hubbard, and another is presumably the weapon General Deveraux kills Tariq Husseini (Amro Salama) with.

M26 hand grenade

During the raid on the Redhook chop-shop, one of the terrorists inside uses the distraction created by the arrival of the Army to pull an M26 hand grenade, the detonation of which provokes the soldiers outside to open up on the shop with everything they have, Agent Hubbard and Tariq Husseini barely surviving the onslaught.

Ruger P95

During the standoff at the bath house, Samir Nazhde (Sami Bouajila) holds Sharon Bridger (Annette Benning) at gunpoint using a Ruger P95 pistol. After several tense moments, Sharon attempts to break free from Nazhde, only to end up with a mortal gunshot wound to the stomach from the pistol.
