District B13 is a French Action film, released overseas under the name Banlieue 13.
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 had a long field barrel that was cut down (see the ribbing reinforcement used for longer barrels) - 12ga
Winchester Model 1300
Possibly a Winchester Model 1300 (will double check).

At first I thought this was a Winchester 1300, but I now think this is a Mossberg 500 Persuader - 12ga
Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe henchman in the back has an 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 NATO
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.

M240B
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.
Ruger Mini-14
Some of Taha's henchmen can be seen holding Ruger Mini 14 rifles in standard configuration.
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
In the film there are quick flashes of nearly dozens of different types of handguns, most of them too quick (or blurry) to identify. Here are some revolvers which (at this time the makes/models escape me). IMFDB users will figure them out in time. :)
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 missingA miscellaneous French gang leader threatens Detective Tomaso with a large frame revolver (to be determined)...
Jericho 941
Taha has a second pistol on his desk, which appears to be a Jericho 941 with a custom port cut into the slide.
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 G32 - 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
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 chrome plated PT92.
