District B13 (also known as Banlieue 13) is a 2004 French action film directed by Pierre Morel. The film is set in a near future where a poor suburb of Paris known as District B13 has been walled off from the rest of the city. The plot revolves around an undercover police officer who has been assigned to locate a stolen bomb that has been hidden in the district. Known for its parkour scenes, the film would spawn a direct sequel: District 13: Ultimatum as well as Brick Mansions, a 2014 American remake that starred Paul Walker and original District B13 star David Belle.
The following weapons were used in the film District B13:
Seen during the fight in the gambling den, one of Montoyas' men fires a full auto pistol that strongly resembles the pistol used in Underworld: Evolution. Most likely a heavily modified Beretta 92 with a custom extended front end, though this is an educated guess based on general shape and usage in other movies.
Along with his Baby Eagle 9mm, Cerbère Taha (Dominique Dorol) also keeps a Ruger KP94DC 9mm handgun (a stainless steel model of the Ruger P94 fitted with a decocker) that's fitted with a small laser pointer right in front of the trigger guard as one of his personal pistols. It's later taken by Leito (David Belle) and used to hold Taha hostage.
Captain Damien Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) 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.
Captain Damien Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) uses a pair of Glock 18s fitted with 33 round magazines to destroy Gangster Montoya's prized automobile.

This model has compensator cuts on the slide and barrel to reduce muzzle climb while firingError creating thumbnail: File missingCaptain Damien Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) fire a pair of Glock 18s akimbo style, dumping both 33 round magazines into Montoya's prized car - 9mm
Glock 32
Police Captain Damien Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) uses a Glock 32 - 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.

Two of K2's henchmen are armed with a Remington 870 Express: one fitted with a nickel plated finish and a sawed off version fitted with a muzzle break. One of Leito's guards has a sawn off version fitted with a taped foregrip and ribbed barrel.

These types of barrels are not stock items with the 870 in riot configuration but can be purchased separately.
Ithaca Model 37 Stakeout

Originally listed as a Mossberg, but the pistol grip upon closer inspection is the distinctive Ithaca Stakeout style. This type of firearm is ironically sold commercially as the "Homeland Security" Model 37.
Mossberg 500
Two Leito's guards are armed with Mossberg 500: one a Persuader model and another one a 500AT model.
One of Taha's henchmen holds a AKS-74U style of weapon with a 5.56 waffle pattern magazine with an underfolding stock. It is most likely the Bulgarian Arsenal AR-SF since this SBR is available through mainstream channels of commerce in France. The rifle is available in 7.62x39mm and in 5.56x45mm NATO. The Bulgarian flash hider has been replaced with the classic Krinkov Flash hider/muzzle brake for the film.
Actually a "733 looking gun". Being a French film and the fact that French Armorers always do strange things with their guns, we see what looks like a Colt Model 733 Short barreled Assault rifle. However the barrel looks a little too long to be the 11" for the real 733 and too short to be the 14" for the 653, so it seems to be an intermediate length barrel (which means it's a custom barrel job from a real M16 carbine). It is seen briefly when Taha's men storm out of the building.
Since the only angle of this weapon is down the barrel it's hard to tell. It looks to be a .308 with a heavy barrel weight/muzzle brake mounted at the end. Possibly an FRF2.
M240Bs are used at gangland checkpoints and are also mounted on pickup trucks during a chase through the city. Being Europe these are most likely FN MAGs outfitted to look like M240B Machine guns (which have features that were requested by the U.S. Military).
The standard 40mm Grenade Launchers for the SIG series of Assault rifle are the GL 5040/GL 5041 launchers, built by Swiss Arms. These are seen attached to SIG SG551s throughout the film.
