Dredd is a 2012 science-fiction film that stars Karl Urban as the title character. The film is based on the comic book character "Judge Dredd", who first appeared in comic strips in the British science fiction anthology "2000 AD" and was first adapted into a 1995 feature film that starred Sylvester Stallone as Dredd. The 2012 film is a "reboot" and the cast includes Lena Headey and Olivia Thirlby.

The following weapons were used in the film Dredd:

Pistols

"Lawgiver"

The "Lawgiver" is the standard pistol carried by the Judges in the film, including Dredd (Karl Urban) and Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby). It can fire in several different modes, with the gun visibly changing shape (such as the barrel extending). Firing models appear to be built around a Glock pistol with a full-size grip, such as a Glock 17 or Glock 19.

Shotguns

South African Musler 12 Gauge Tactical Action

A criminal can be seen firing a shotgun. As this film was produced in South Africa, the shotgun is likely a 12 Gauge Musler, a South African-manufactured shotgun similar in appearance to the Mossberg 500.

Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Towards the end of the film, Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) uses a Heckler & Koch MP5A3. This particular weapon is fitted with a "Navy SEF" trigger group, which is essentially a Navy trigger housing with the non ambidextrous SEF selector and markings.

The same criminal holds his BXP on a hostage. Throughout the film, both the Judges and gangsters show excellent trigger discipline, which is very unusual in film.

Assault Rifles

Vektor R5

Several criminals can be seen with slightly dressed up Galil Pattern rifles. As this feature was filmed in South Africa, it can be assumed that these weapons are actually Vektor R5s.

Machine Guns

Unidentified Machine Gun

An unidentified machine gun can be seen mounted to the side of Judge Dredd's motorcycle. It appears to have a double "saddle" type ammunition drum as seen on some WWII era German machine guns such as the MG34.

The machine gun in question is mounted to the left side of Dredd's bike, and is visible here during a car chase scene.

"It's you who'll be doin' the complying Judge!" Big Joe threatens Dredd with his M249 Para in hand.

Prop Minigun

Fictional oversized versions of the GE M134 Minigun can be seen on pedestal mounts.

A number of criminals open up with the miniguns on the orders of Madeline "Ma-Ma" Madrigal (Lena Headey). The weapons are too large for genuine M134 Miniguns, and the size of the ammunition feed implies it fire a round larger than 7.62×51mm.
