The following weapons were used in the film Hold-Up:
Various unidentified revolvers are seen in several scens.
Inglis Hi-Power
Several Montreal SWAT troopers carry pistols in addition to their M16s or sniper rifles. These pistols are seen only in holsters, but they greatly resemble Browning Hi-Power. According to the fact that the movie was filmed in Canada, they are most likely Canadian-manufactured Inglis Hi-Power.
Submachine Guns
Uzi
Uzi submachine guns are seen in hands of police officers and detectives.
Several SWAT troopers are armed with Heckler & Koch MP5 SMGs. They are seen very briefly and at a distance so it's impossible to say for sure if they are MP5A3s or converted HK 94 Carbines.
Shotguns
Franchi SPAS-12
Several Montreal SWAT troopers carry Franchi SPAS-12 shotguns.
Various unidentified shotguns
Police officers are seen with pump action shotguns of several models (all of them unidentified).
