District B13

District B13 (original title Banlieue 13) is a 2004 French action film directed by Pierre Morel. The film is set in a near future where a poor suburb of Paris known as District B13 has been walled off from the rest of the city. The plot revolves around an undercover police officer who has been assigned to locate a stolen bomb that has been hidden in the district. Known for its parkour scenes, the film would spawn a direct sequel: District 13: Ultimatum as well as Brick Mansions, a 2014 American remake that starred Paul Walker and original District B13 star David Belle.

=Pistols=
==Beretta 92FS==
==Beretta 92FS (Modified)==
Seen during the fight in the gambling den, one of Montoya's men fires a full-auto pistol that strongly resembles the pistol used in Underworld: Evolution. Most likely a heavily modified Beretta 92FS with a custom extended front end and an extended magazine, though this is an educated guess based on general shape and usage in other movies.

thumb|none|300px|Glock 26 - 9x19mm
==Heckler & Koch Mark 23==
K2 (Tony D'Amario) uses a Heckler & Koch Mark 23, which is later taken by Lola (Dany Verissimo) and then by the police commissioner (Alain Rimoux).

thumb|none|600px|Lola angrily points the Mk 23 pistol at a smart mouthed gangster. She then removes her thong panties and makes him eat them at gunpoint, prompting her hostage (the Gangleader Taha) to quip "My kind of girl"...
==Heckler & Koch USP==
Early on, K2 pulls two handguns out of a shopping bag filled with Heckler & Koch USP pistols. Later, a USP is used by another of Taha's henchmen.
thumb|none|300px|Heckler & Koch USP - 9x19mm

==Ruger KP94DC==
Along with his Baby Eagle 9mm, Taha (Bibi Naceri) also keeps a Ruger KP94 handgun (a stainless steel model of the Ruger P94 fitted with a decocker) equipped with a small laser pointer right in front of the trigger guard as one of his personal pistols. It's later taken by Leito (David Belle) and then by the police commissioner (Alain Rimoux).

==SIG Pro SP 2022==
Leïto (David Belle) takes a SIG Pro SP 2022 from the glove compartment of a police van.
==SIG-Sauer P220==
Captain Damien Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) grabs a pair of SIG pistols during a fight. The full size and large aperture of the barrel would indicate a big caliber like a .45 ACP, so the assumption is that they are P220s.
==Taurus PT92AFS==
Used by the horrifying Carlos Montoya (Marc Andréoni), a Taurus PT92AFS, identifiable by the frame mounted safety/decocker. Tomaso (Cyril Raffaelli) later takes the pistol from him and uses it to pistol-whip him.

==Ithaca Model 37 Stakeout==
thumb|none|600px
thumb|none|600px|One of K2's henchmen chases down Leïto with an Ithaca Model 37 stakeout with 18" barrel on his back. Originally listed as a Mossberg, but the pistol grip upon closer inspection is the distinctive Ithaca Stakeout style. This type of firearm is ironically sold commercially as the "Homeland Security" Model 37.
==Mossberg 500AT==
The Mossberg 500AT is carried by two of Montoya's thugs.
==Mossberg 500 Cruiser==
One of Leïto's guars, Tarik (Azad), is armed with a Mossberg 500 Cruiser. One of Montoya's men also attempts to use one.

Two of K2's henchmen are armed with Remington 870 Express shotguns: one fitted with a nickel plated finish and a sawed off version fitted with a muzzle brake. One of Leito's guards has a sawn off version fitted with a taped foregrip and ribbed barrel.
thumb|none|600px|One of Leïto's guards holds a taped up Remington 870 Express that has a ribbed barrel. These types of barrels are not stock items with the 870 in riot configuration but can be purchased separately.
thumb|none|600px|One of K2's thugs has a silver shotgun. Though one may think it's an 870 Marine Magnum, it is merely a Remington 870 Express "pimped out" with a nickel plated finish.

=Rifles & Carbines=
==AIMR==

thumb|none|600px|A thug fires an AIMR.
==AR-15 Pistol/SMG==
thumb|none|600px|The henchman in the back has a chopped down short barreled AR-15/M16 full-auto pistol based on the Rocky Mountain Patriot AR Pistol design, however it does not have a flat top receiver like the American pistol, but maintains the carry handle of the M16A1 upper receiver.
thumb|none|600px|The henchmen tries to break in the door with an AR-15 pistol.
==Arsenal AR-SF==
One of Taha's henchmen holds a AKS-74U style of weapon with a 5.56 waffle pattern magazine with an underfolding stock. It is most likely the Bulgarian Arsenal AR-SF since this SBR is available through mainstream channels of commerce in France. The rifle is available in 7.62x39mm and in 5.56x45mm NATO. The Bulgarian flash hider has been replaced with the classic Krinkov Flash hider/muzzle brake for the film.
thumb|none|600px|Taha's henchman holds a Bulgarian AR-SF short barreled assault rifle. This version replaced the Bulgarian flash hider with the classic Russian Krinkov Flash hider and the blonde Bulgarian wood furniture has been replaced with brown Krinkov style wood.
thumb|none|600px|One of Taha's men fires an AR-SF.
==Colt Model 733==
Actually a "733 looking gun". Being a French film and the fact that French Armorers always do strange things with their guns, we see what looks like a Colt Model 733 short barreled assault rifle. However the barrel looks a little too long to be the 11" for the real 733 and too short to be the 14" for the 653, so it seems to be an intermediate length barrel (which means it's a custom barrel job from a real M16 carbine). It is seen briefly when Taha's men storm out of the building.

Since the only angle of this weapon is down the barrel it's hard to tell. It looks to be a .308 with a heavy barrel weight/muzzle brake mounted at the end. Possibly an FR F2.

==M240B==
M240Bs are used at gangland checkpoints and are also mounted on pickup trucks during a chase through the city. Being Europe these are most likely FN MAGs outfitted to look like M240B Machine guns (which have features that were requested by the U.S. Military).
