Baby Driver is a 2017 Edgar Wright-directed genre 'send-up' film in the same vein as his previous features Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead. The film stars Ansel Elgort as "Baby", an expert getaway driver who uses music to heighten his skills for various robbery crews. The film was praised for its direction and unique use of sound design. The film's cast includes Lily James, Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx, Jon Hamm, Eiza González and Jon Bernthal.
The following weapons were used in the film Baby Driver:
A stainless Kimber Ultra Raptor is seen used by Monica Costello AKA "Darling" (Eiza González) as her personal sidearm. It is later seen used by "Baby" (Ansel Elgort). The Kimber is also featured on the film's poster.
A SIG-Sauer P250 Compact with a stainless steel slide is used by Jason Van Horn AKA "Buddy" (Jon Hamm). It is his secondary sidearm, shown being used in the gun deal shootout as well as the diner shootout and the parking garage shootout. It can be identified as a SIG P250 by the slide, the reflection on the metal trigger and the bobbed DAO hammer.
Leon Jefferson III AKA "Bats" (Jamie Foxx) carries a Smith & Wesson 4566 with adjustable sights as his sidearm. This firearm was previously identified as a 5906, but it has no double-stack bulge and appears to have a larger muzzle, so it's probably a 4566.

This is the best shot of Bats' 4566 in the film. You can clearly see the ambidextrous safety on the slide, which identifies this for sure as a third-generation Smith and not a similar S&W pistol, like a 659. Also note how the "dog ear" rear sight base and protector has been removed, leaving just the rear sight. This could also be a custom adjustable rear sight.
Heckler & Koch HK45
The off-duty Marine (Clay Donahue Fontenot) uses a tan Heckler & Koch HK45 during the armored car robbery.
A Heckler & Koch VP9 is seen on the ground after a shootout with the corrupt cops after an illegal arms deal. Presumably used by a cop during the shootout.
Officers of the Atlanta, Georgia Police Department are seen carrying Smith & Wesson M&Ps as their standard-issue sidearms. This is quite accurate, as, in reality, the Atlanta PD carry M&Ps. The M&Ps appear to be 9mm which is not correct for the Atlanta PD as they use the M&P40 in reality.
Inside the pistol cache on the bottom right is what appears to be some kind of M1911A1 variant with thin front and rear cocking serrations, three-hole trigger, rubber Pachmayr grips and (possibly?) a ring hammer. It is entirely possible that this is simply a Colt XSE or a similar variant with Pachmayr grips.
A first-generation Walther P99 is seen in the illegal weapons cache. It is never being seen fired and could just be simply a rubber prop.

It is noted as a first-generation model by its hooked trigger guard, a feature which was eliminated on second and third-generation models. Also note that the trigger is in the rearward position, meaning that the gun is in single-action mode.
Glock 26
A third-generation Glock 26 is seen in the illegal weapons cache. It is never being seen fired and could just be simply a rubber prop.

Note the extended slide release and magazine floorplate. Also, the markings on the gun are sorta weird, so this is probably just a rubber stunt gun.
In addition to his HK45, the off-duty Marine (Clay Donahue Fontenot) is seen hilariously using a Heckler & Koch MP5K during the armored car robbery. Apparently, director Edgar Wright put the submachine gun in the film to inject some more over the top humor into the largely serious scene.
What is strikingly similar to a CAA Tactical RONI-G1 conversion kit to put over a Glock 17 pistol is seen in the illegal weapons cache. It is entirely possible that this is what is seen here.
The Primary Weapons Systems MK1 is the main weapon of Buddy (Jon Hamm) after the group acquires weapons from the illegal arms dealer. This is a long stroke piston-driven AR-15 derivative that was first put to market in 2014 and is notably adapted to fire the .223 Wylde cartridge. The weapon is equipped with an EOTech 551 holographic, a Magpul RVG foregrip, Magpul furniture, and folding sights. Humorously, the firearm appears to fire in full-auto yet the sound effects seem to indicate semi-auto; this is the exact opposite error that Darling's MPX have. In non-firing scenes, the weapon is replaced by a rubber version of the Daniel Defense MK18.
The PWS MK1 from this film was later re-used in the last season of Hawaii Five-0.

This is the actual screen-used weapon from the film, though it has different accessories (e.g., an EOTech EXPS3-0, rather than the EOTech 551 used in the film). This image was posted on the Instagram account of Independent Studio Services, which provided all weapons used in the film.Error creating thumbnail: File missingOn the top of the illegal gun cache is the PWS MK1 rifle which is used by Buddy later on in the film.

Daniel Defense MK18
Although Buddy uses a Primary Weapons Systems MK1 as his main weapon in the film, the gun is replaced by a Daniel Defense MK18 in the same configuration for non-firing scenes. This weapon actually appears to be a rubber clone of a MK18, not a live-firing weapon.
Two AKMS assault rifles are seen in the Butcher's illegal gun cache, one with wooden furniture and one with aluminum rails. The one appears to be Polish by the wooden furniture. Bats (Jamie Foxx) later acquires it and uses it during the gun deal shootout.
A SIG SG 552 "Commando" appears to be located behind the CAA Tactical RONI-G1 Glock conversion kit in the illegal weapons cache. It is not ever fired and could be a rubber prop.
JD (Lanny Joon) uses a Mossberg 590 Mariner shotgun. His shotgun is the only one without a sling, which means he leaves it behind in the panic of swapping cars after the heist.
"The Butcher" (played by Paul Williams in a cameo), the illegal gun salesman, offers up a weapons cache for sale. Some of the weapons seen in the cache include some pistols, submachine guns, assault rifles and grenades.
