The following weapons were used in the film Death Race:

Death Race (2008)

DShK Heavy Machine Gun

Colt M4A1 Carbine - 5.56mm

Heckler & Koch MP5

Heckler & Koch G36

Steyr AUG

In addition, the Steyr AUG is also in the arsenal.

Steyr AUG with Black Stock - 5.56x45mm. The pin with the Sling Swivel is ambidextrous. On this model the Sling is set for a left handed carry (though not left handed shooting since the ejection port has not been swapped to the other side (an option for the Steyr AUG))

Beretta 92FS

Police officers who find Jensen in his kitchen are seen with Beretta 92FS handguns.

Beretta 92FS - 9x19mm.

Sawed off Double Barrel Shotgun

Warden Hennessey (Joan Allen) keeps this weapon under her desk attached to a spinning mount so she can aim it easily at whoever is standing in front of her. She does this when she told the guards to take Jensen's cuffs off..

Rossi Overland Shotgun converted by Ellis Mercantile for The Untouchables

Hennessey's shotgun. This is a new production Remington Spartan double barrel shotgun. (formerly by the brand Baikal) The shotgun has internal firing pins where the hammers have to be cocked to arm the internal pins but don't actually strike outside exposed firing pins like the true cowboy coach guns fitted with hammers.

M60

M60 machine gun 7.62x51mm NATO

Advanced M26 Taser

Advanced M26 Tasers fitted with laser sights are used by Ulrich and another guard to stop the fight between Jensen Ames (Jason Statham) & Pachenko (Max Ryan).

The Cars of "Death Race"

The following lists the armaments carried by the cars of "Death Race":

"The Monster" 2006 Ford Mustang GT

Driven by Jensen Ames (Jason Statham) as Frank.

M134 Mini Guns Twin M134 miniguns are hood-mounted on the passenger side of "The Monster". Coach (Ian McShane) mentions that they are "30mm machine guns", but in reality the barrels reveal that they are the miniguns that fire 7.62mm rounds. (They probably meant .30 caliber machine guns).

"The Monster" with twin front-mounted miniugns.

"The Monster" clashes side-by-side with Pachenko's Riviera.

MG42/MG3

Frank has three bonnet-mounted in the beginning of the movie. These were replaced by the dual miniguns after the Monster was destroyed by an RPG from Machine Gun Joe. Interestingly, the Monster is one of the lightest-armed vehicles in the movie.

Fuel Tank

While technically not a gun, it is used very ingeniously by Ames to get some guards off his tail.

"The Tombstone"

Six-inch steel rear armor plate that, combined with high speed, becomes a useful projectile. It is also claimed that .50 caliber bullets could cut through it in seconds, which is highly unlikely, they'd more likely scratch it. Used by the original Frankenstein (David Carradine) in the first race and Jensen Ames at an attempt to take out Machine Gun Joe Mason (Tyrese Gibson) out of the final race.

2004 Dodge RAM 4WD

Driven by Machine Gun Joe Mason (Tyrese Gibson)

RPG's

Six are roof-mounted for the final race. They are used to blast open the hole for their escape. Lists (Frederick Koehler) says they're "Model 7 Russian State Armory RPG's. Armor-piercing, self-arming, accurate at 2000 yards.This in truth is a lie since an RPG has a 45% of accuracy at 500 meters"

Shot of Joe's roof-mounted RPG's.

1966 Buick Riviera

Driven by Pachenko (Max Ryan)

MG34 machine guns

Four MG34s are hood-mounted on Pachenko's (Max Ryan) car with two PPSh-41s on the radiator grill and twin Uzis in the grill. There also appears to be a barrel of some description coming out of the boot of the car, most likely a machine gun for defence.
