The following weapons were used in the film Alive In Joburg:

Alive in Joburg (2005)

FN SCAR-L

The two (apparently CG) soldiers who attack the bio-suited "Poleepkwa" use FN SCAR-Ls, with scopes and fore-grips attached.

Unknown Rifle

Unused by the sniper (Sharlto Copley).

FAL (Or, Likely, R1)

Used by the Sniper (Sharlto Copley) on patrol.

Beretta 92FS (?)

Constable Bongani Zulu uses one of these.

Type 56

A Poleepkwa is seen using a Type 56 to fire on police officers. One is also seen in the back of an apprehended vehicle.

Remington 870

Seen at the beginning of the film in the hands of a police officer.

Vektor R6

Bongani Zulu's partner uses this to fire on a Poleepkwa with a Type 56.

Uzi

A police officer is seen with a full-size Uzi.

It's hard to see, but the rear sights signify a full-size Uzi.

Toy Micro-Uzi

A child is seen with a toy Micro-Uzi.

How cute.

FN Minimi

South African troops are seen with the FN Minimi.

• The shot is from archival footage of South African soldiers during the 1980s, so the stock is more likely that of a R4 rifle (Galil).

On the far left, it's a Minimi. You can tell. I think there's a shot that shows the rear sights, and the pistol grip is more in line with a Minimi than an R4.

On the left, the stock of an FN Minimi is seen

1911-style pistol, likely Star BS

Constable Zulu or his partner is seen with this stuck in the back of his pants while apprehending a Poleepkwa criminal.

Star Model BS - 9x19mm.
