M16A2
The cons take several M16A2 assault rifles from the weapons stash. The rifles fire fully-automatic, which means that they are actually M16A2 upper receivers placed on full-auto lower M16A1 receivers, typical of all Hollywood "M16A2" rifles.
Rubber M16 prop
When Cyrus throws down his empty M16A2, it changes to a rubber prop featuring the M16A1 style sights and lacking a forward assist, shell deflector, and magazine fencing. This means that the prop was mostly likely cast from a civilian AR15 Sporter-1 rifle fitted with A2-style handguards.
M16A1 (With A2 handguards)
The National Guardsmen and some of the prison guards are armed with M16A1 rifles fitted with M16A2 handguards.
Skorpion SA
A cartel member (Eddie Pérez) duel wields two guns, one being a Skorpion SA, the other being..
Beretta 92SB
...a Beretta 92SB pistol, noted by its rounded trigger guard.
Seecamp LWS-32
The undercover DEA agent Willie Sims (José Zuñiga) is given a Seecamp LWS-32 .32 ACP pistol, which he draws before being killed by Cyrus.

Glock 17
U.S Marshal Vince Larkin (John Cusack) uses a Glock 17 2nd generation as his issued sidearm.
Defense Technologies 1315 37mm
When Cyrus (John Malkovich) takes the guns out of the weapons hold, a few of the cons use Def Tech 1315 37mm launchers, used to look like HE launchers.

Colt Woodsman "Assassin" Model
One of the cartel members (Thomas Rosales Jr.) uses a Colt Woodsman with both a modified slide and barrel to thread a suppressor, commonly known as the "Assassin" model. Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) comments that the cons would hear the shot, so he threads a suppressor on it. When Poe dispatches all the cartel members, he takes the gun for his own use, before dropping it diving from an explosion.
