The following weapons were used in the film Elysium:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Handguns
Beretta 93R
Sandro (Jose Pablo Cantillo) wields dual Beretta 93R pistols during the brain data heist. They seem to be modified to attach to his chest rig/gauntlets. The pistols have been converted to fully automatic fire.

When Sandro is hit we can briefly see that the opposite side of his right-hand Beretta is attached to his forearm.
Sandro's Berettas empty soon after he is hit.
Beretta 92FS
Spyder (Wagner Moura) and his men are armed with Beretta 92FS pistols in various scenes.
One of Spyder's men points a Beretta at Julio.
When Max confronts Spyder, Spyder draws a Beretta on him. An Ekol blank fire only replica was used for this shot.

Futuristic Pistol
Drake (Brandon Auret) and Crowe (Josh Blacker) carry futuristic sidearms which appear to be props, and not based on any real-world design. Human Elysium security forces are also armed with the pistol.

Rifles
AKM
Manuel (Adrian Holmes) gives Max De Costa (Matt Damon) a dressed up AKM rifle before the brain data heist. The rifle fires fictional 7.62x39mm airburst munitions, and is fitted with an advanced (and fictional) computerized targeting system that includes a holosight, aiming laser, and rangefinder. The targeting system allows the operator to determine the range at which the airburst munition will detonate, similar to the real-life XM25. Before Max can use the rifle during the heist, it jams and he gives to Julio (Diego Luna), who clears the jam.
AKM (stamped steel receiver with slant muzzle brake) - 7.62x39mm
Matt Damon holds the customized AKM in a promotional still, here buttons for the airburst detonation range are clearly visible.
Manuel hands Max airburst ammunition. He explains that the rounds have a 5-meter kill radius, making each round as powerful as present-day 40x46mm grenade.
Manuel sights the AKM as he talks to Max.
Max sights what he calls a 'family heirloom.' If any weapon was to still be in working condition after almost 200 years, it would probably be an AK.

Julio clears a jam for Max, who appropriately doesn't know how to do that, since he has never received any firearms training.
Max takes aim at a security droid.
Later during the heist, Max retrieves the AKM and magazines. Note the airbust round in the magazine.

FN SCAR-L
Julio (Diego Luna) uses a FN SCAR-L assault rifle suring the brain data heist. He gives the rifle to Max De Costa (Matt Damon), after Max discards his custom AKM. Its 5.56x45mm ammunition, unlike the AKM's airbust rounds, prove highly ineffective against the security droids.
FN SCAR-L - 5.56x45mm NATO
Julio, holding his SCAR-L, passes the modified AKM back to Max after clearing a jam.

ChemRail
Max De Costa (Matt Damon) grabs a fictional "ChemRail" rifle during the fight in the Elysium armory. Drake (Brandon Auret) also uses one of these rifles in the film. The ChemRail has a high rate of fire, and its high-velocity rounds rip right through walls and shred enemies. The weapon has a blazing rate of fire, and instead changing magazines, Max just grabs another ChemRail rifle from the armory after the first one runs out of ammo. According to the official site, it fires 8.75x52mm FSDRAS (Fin Stabilized, Discarding Rail Accelerator Sabot) rounds with a muzzle energy of 18 kilojoules. It is a dual-stage weapon, using chemical propellant first and then electro-magnetic rails as the second stage.

Max fires the ChemRail at Drake once Drake runs out of ammunition.
Max holds the ChemRail after dismembering Drake through a wall.
Max wielding a second ChemRail after the first one runs empty, rather than reloading. Again, this makes sense due to his lack of weapons training.

A nice close-up of the computerized sights.
Cousar Crowe assault rifle
The Cousar Crowe is a fictional assault rifle carried by Elysium security droids, human security, and also by Drake (Brandon Auret). According to the official site, it is a 40 kg anti-material rifle firing .22 caliber hyper-velocity rounds. According to the prop itself, it is made in Brazil and fires 5.25x25mm electro-chemically propelled rounds. The movie itself treats it as a bog standard assault rifle that is neither heavy nor particularly powerful.

Shotguns
Custom Remington 870
Manuel (Adrian Holmes) gives Max De Costa (Matt Damon) a customized Remington 870 before the brain data heist. The Remington is fitted with a short barrel, M4-style stock, shell holder, a doorbreaching muzzle device, and Surefire weaponlight foregrip. Max uses the weapon to fire a guided high-explosive round, that is then remotely triggered. He then ditches the weapon, and it is not seen again.

Max with the 870 just before he discards it. Which, based on how the data heist plays out, probably wouldn't seem like the smartest move to him later on.
Machine Guns
Fictional door gun
A door gun is mounted on the R-165 Raven Assault VTOL that Agent Kruger (Sharlto Copley) and his men ride, and on an Elysium Homeland Defense Force helicopter.

FN Minimi SPW (Knight's Armament ChainSAW Mock-Up)
Manuel (Adrian Holmes) uses an FN Minimi SPW mocked up to look like a KAC ChainSAW (a modified Stoner 96 LMG with chainsaw grips, Cobray flare launcher, and suppressor) during the brain data heist. He also appears to have a camera device attached to the weapon and linked with his helmet display, as he is seen firing the weapon wildly from cover while looking in the opposite direction.

"Die, motherf***er!" Manuel blind-fires his mocked-up FN Minimi SPW during the data heist.
Launchers
4Sure Ballistics Missile Launcher
Kruger (Sharlto Copley) uses the 4Sure Ballistics Missile Launcher, a surface-to-space missile launcher that looks similar to a M202A1 FLASH. It fires ground-to-space missiles at over 518 kilometers per second, or 45 times escape velocity with an effective range in excess of 15,000 kilometers. The official site implies that the weapon uses a non-nuclear thermal grenade warhead, the NT-RU735, with a megaton-level explosive yield. However, the movie depicts the missiles as simple kinetic-impact rounds.
Kruger readies the launcher. Note the front covers are closed.
A close-up of the instructions.
Kruger fires the first rocket.
Sky Sweeper grenade launcher
John Carlyle's (William Fichtner) security droids carry Sky Sweeper grenade launchers mounted on their Crowe assault rifles. According to the official site, the device is a 15kg, 25mm caliber missile launcher that fires anti-air rounds at escape velocity, and is able to engage targets on Earth from the Moon. In the actual movie, the weapon appears closer to 40mm caliber and suffers from Video Game Grenade Launcher Syndrome, turning the supposedly-powerful weapon into an inaccurate dumbfire weapon whose rounds do zero damage. However, only Carlyle's droids ever carry the launcher, suggesting that it may well add a good deal of weight to the rifle it is mounted on. The design seems to be based on the Metal Storm 3GL.

M203A1 grenade launcher
An M203A1 grenade launcher is custom-fitted to Manuel's M249.
Knight's Armament Company M203A1 - 40x46mm

Less-Than-Lethal
Taser Pistol
Fictional sci-fi taser pistols are used by Drake (Brandon Auret) and Crowe (Josh Blacker) after the VTOL crash. These tasers appear to fire bolts of electricity rather than the electrode darts used by modern tasers.
Drake uses a taser pistol to subdue Max.
Crowe wields his Taser before recapturing Frey and Matilda.
Taser Carbine
A fictional 'taser carbine' is briefly seen used by a Homeland Defense Force droid when detaining illegal immigrants. Like the taser pistols, it appears to fire bolts of electricity.

A Homeland Defense Force droid fires the taser carbine at a fleeing illegal immigrant.
The droid firing the taser carbine.
Explosives
Grenade
An unknown model of hand grenade is used by one of Carlyle's security droids. Similar grenades are used by Drake (Brandon Auret), and one is used by Kruger (Sharlto Copley) during the finale. Max uses a different grenade on Agent Kruger's VTOL, after taking it from one of Spyder's henchmen. The grenades appear to be a "futurised" fragmentation grenade, with the general shape of a modern smoke grenade. If you look closely, you can see tiny grooves in the casing, suggesting a high fragment count.
