The following weapons were used in the film The Gunman:

Handguns

Glock 18C

Jim Terrier (Sean Penn) arms himself with a 2nd generation Glock 18C which is part of a supply drop in a safe hotel where he stays in Barcelona. He is seen using both regular and extended magazines, and makes use of semi-automatic and automatic fire.

Unknown Glock

A full-size Glock is seen a few times during the film; in the holsters of Reed (Billy Bingingham) and other operatives at the beginning, holstered and wielded by several operatives during action scenes, including being holstered on Reiniger (Peter Franzén), and also briefly in the hands of Cox (Mark Rylance) in what appears to be a continuity error. It is unclear what caliber or model the pistols are.

Glock 17 for reference - 9x19mm

Beretta Px4 Storm

A Beretta Px4 Storm is the sidearm used primarily by Reiniger (Peter Franzén), briefly unsuppressed at the aquarium, and then with a suppressor for the remainder of the film. One is also seen in the hands of Stanley (Ray Winstone).

Rifles & Carbines

M4A1

Jim Terrier (Sean Penn) and his fellow team members Reed (Billy Bingingham) and Bryson (Daniel Adegboyega) are seen armed with the M4A1 Carbine at the beginning of the film. Other operatives, including Cox (Mark Rylance) can also be seen with the M4A1 in the background.

FN SCAR-L

An 'indig' sent to kill Jim Terrier (Sean Penn) is armed with an FN SCAR-L rifle. Jim turns the rifle against its owner and then gives it to Eugene (Ade Oyefeso). An operative is briefly seen with a SCAR-L later on in the film, during the firefight at the country estate.

FN SCAR-L STD; the one seen in the film has the shorter CQC barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO

Closeup on the receiver of the FN SCAR.

Jim kills the 'indig' with his own weapon. Here the SCAR's action is made to cycle electronically and a CGI muzzle flash is added to give quite a realistic appearance that the weapon has really been fired.

Jim takes up the FN SCAR.

Jim checks to ensure the area is clear.

Eugene holding the FN SCAR as Jim leaves.

An operative takes up a position at the estate with an FN SCAR. Interestingly, this actor wears the same costume as the marksman seen earlier in this scene, who has what appears to be a SCAR-L slung on his back, and who disappears entirely from the film after firing several shots from his DSR-1. This would suggest that it is the same operator, although it is clearly not the same actor.

PGM Hecate II

Jim is seen using a PGM Hecate II as his chosen sniper weapon during the assassination.

PGM Hecate II - .50 BMG

DSR-Precision DSR-1 - 7.62x51mm

The marksman changes position due to incoming gunfire. He is cradling the DSR-1, and if one looks closely, they can spot a Glock on his hip and a carbine slung on his back with stock folded, maybe an FN SCAR.
