Modified Beretta 92FS

The signature weapons of Selene (Kate Beckinsale) are two Beretta 92FS handguns modified to fire on full auto with compensators attached.

Visible are three distinct silver weld marks (one on the frame above the trigger and two near the end of the barrel on the bottom of the pistol. These are the weld marks where a hole was drilled completely through the gun and a steel bar was welded into place, deactivating (i.e. permanently ruining) these formerly live firearms so that they could be sold in the U.K.

Selene reloads her Berettas by smacking the magazines together into the wells, although it's questionable how she grabbed the spare magazines with a gun in each hand.

Selene fires her Berettas at attacking Lycans.
When she realizes the Lycans cannot be stopped, she turns her Berettas to the floor. Keep in mind she hasn't reloaded after firing probably more than the weapons' capacities.
Regardless, she fires even more rounds than the weapons can hold and cuts a hole in the floor of which she can escape through.
Selene points one of her Berettas at Michael (Scott Speedman).
Erika (Sophia Myles) gives Selene her bag containing her Berettas and several magazines loaded with silver bullets.
Selene drops to one knee and kills several Lycans with one long burst from her Beretta.

Walther P99

In addition to her Beretta 92FS handguns mentioned above, Selene (Kate Beckinsale) also uses a pair of two tone Walther P99s fitted with Kemmer Tech BA-5 laser sights at the bottom of the barrels. The guns have been modified to lessen the weight required on the trigger to fire, allowing Kate Beckinsale's character to fire them almost as if they were fully automatic, which the sound editors for the film must have decided they were, since the weapons report like submachine guns.

Standard black Walther P99s are also seen used by both vampires and Lycans in the film.

IMI Desert Eagle Mark VII

Many Lycans (werewolves) in the film use nickel plated IMI Desert Eagle Mark VIIs chambered in .44 Magnum as their handguns. They are loaded with hollow bullets filled with a special irradiated fluid that emits ultraviolet light: "Sunlight used as a weapon." Selene takes a Desert Eagle loaded with the special bullets off a Lycan warrior, Trix (Todd Schneider) in the beginning of the film. Lucian (Michael Sheen) also has one at the end of the film.

Steyr TMP

In the firefight at the beginning of the film, Raze (Kevin Grevioux) uses two Steyr TMPs to battle the vampires in the subway. Several are also seen in the vampire armory.

Steyr TMP - 9mm.
Raze unloads both of his Steyr TMPs, doing a great job of keeping his eyes open despite the large muzzle flashes, the result of using full-flash blanks.
Since his left hand is firing towards the ground, he's quite likely right hand dominant.
When they both run dry, he tosses one and reloads the other.

Franchi SPAS-12

After the firefight in the subway, the Lycan leader Lucian (Michael Sheen) breaks up a fight between two werewolves by firing a Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun with a shortened barrel and magazine tube in the air and telling them that they are behaving like rabid dogs. A Lycan is also seen loading one up before the final battle.

Heckler & Koch USP Compact

While at the mansion's shooting range, Selene (Kate Beckinsale) can be seen firing a Heckler & Koch USP Compact along with other weapons. A vampire during the subway shootout is also seen using one.

Heckler & Koch USP-9

A Heckler & Koch USP-9 is given to Michael Corvin (Scott Speedman) by Selene (Kate Beckensale) when he is chained to a chair at the safehouse, and attempts to free himself by shooting the chain with the gun but fails.

Heckler & Koch USP Match

A Heckler & Koch USP Match makes its first appearance when it is given to Selene (Kate Beckinsale) by Kahn (Robbie Gee) to test out. When she fires it, silver liquid comes out of the target, and we learn that the gun is loaded with Silver Nitrate bullets which were copied from the Lycan's ultraviolet ammunition, and are very lethal to the werewolves as it allows silver to flow into their blood stream. Towards the end of the film, Kraven (Shane Brolly) also uses a USP Match loaded with the same ammunition.

AKM

During the scene where Selene (Kate Beckinsale) is discussing the war between the vampires and the Lycans, and when the the Lycans are loading up, several AKMs can be seen being handed out. They are also seen layered up in a gun rack, although some of these may be milled reciever Norinco Type 56 rifles.

AKM - 7.62x39mm.

AKMs are seen in the gun rack. The first one has a milled reciever, so it may be a Norinco Type 56 or an older AK-47.

AKMSU

What appears to be AKMSU assault carbines are seen in the gun racks, based on their lack of full stocks and short barrels.

Heckler & Koch PSG-1

In Kahn's Armory there is a H&K PSG-1 Sniper rifle leaning against the wall.

Heckler & Koch G36K

Like the Desert Eagle, many of the Lycans use Heckler & Koch G36K assault rifles.

M16A2

During the scene when Selene (Kate Beckinsale) is discussing the war between Lycans and Vampires, it cuts to a gun rack, where an M16A2 is seen with many other weapons.

Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW

Most of the vampire death dealers in the film use H&K MP5K-PDW submachine guns.

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Both the Vampires and Lycans alike can be seen using MP5A3s on several occasions. And the way to tell the two side's MP5A3s apart is that the Lycan's guns usually have tactical flashlights on the foregrip.

M4A1 Carbine

Towards the end of the film, Kahn (Robbie Gee) can often be seen with an M4A1 carbine, fitted with a scope and a Surefire M500AB tactical flashlight in the foregrip. The lower receiver lacks the "fencing" around the magazine release, which means it's actually an M4 barreled Upper receiver mounted onto an early Colt SP1 (original M16) lower receiver. Since so many SP1 lower receivers were converted to full auto fire (for movie use) in the last three decades, this is a common practice.
