The front sight block is close to the gas block much like the Hungarian AMD-65 rifle, but the weapon differs in having a AK-74 style muzzle brake and black polymer furniture. Closer Inspection of the receiver and magazine show it to be a Vektor R4/R5 mocked up as some kind of AK-47 type rifle.

Armsel Striker
A Nigerian which is shot by a mercenary after the rebels catch Wikus fires a Armsel Striker shotgun, which according to armorer Olly Steele has a long barrel and was fitted with various extras.

Musgrave Pump Action
A South African Policeman is armed with Musgrave Pump Action shotgun during the news footage of the Armored car robbery.
Flamethrower
Carried by MNU soldiers who burn down an alien hive. Unless proven otherwise, this weapon is probably a fictional model like countless other film productions. In a deleted scene in which Wikus steals an AFV, a canister that is attached to the flamethrower hose and nozzle is thrown from the vehicle before being driven off. The canister appears to be similar to a gas tank, much like that of a propane tank.
